Happy Almost-September, MockingHeart Review Friends!

I hope you’re faring well today, and that you’re closing out August in a summery way! Tonight (August 31st) is the last few hours to submit to the Fall 2026 issue of MHR. The issue will be published on October 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 September.

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

Tyler Robert Sheldon, Editor-in-Chief
