Happy May, MockingHeart Review Friends!

I hope you’re faring well today, and that you wrapped up National Poetry Month in a satisfyingly literary way! Yesterday was the last day to submit to the Spring/Summer 2026 issue of MHR. The issue will be published on June 1st.

If you sent your artwork or poetry our way this reading period, thanks very much! We’re looking forward to experiencing your creations, and we’ll get back to you before long. You can expect to hear back about your submission by the end of this month, May 31st.

Be well, and as always, thank you for your excellent work in the world.

Tyler Robert Sheldon, Editor-in-Chief
