About: The Seattle Review has a strong local presence—each issue includes an interview with a Northwest writer—but also publishes from across the country. It is also interested in exploring the craft of writing.

The Seattle Review holds an annual poetry and fiction contest with $500 prize in each category.

Analysis: Quoted in Writer’s Market 2009: “Beginners do well in our magazine if they send clean, well-written manuscripts. We’ve published a lot of ‘first stories’ from all over the country and take pleasure in discovery.”
