Xavier University of Louisiana - Submission Guidlines

Xavier Review
Submission Guidelines

Xavier Review, which has been publishing since 1980, accepts poetry, fiction, translations, personal essays and critical essays.

Our content includes a focus on African American, Caribbean and Southern literature, as well as works that touch on issues of religion and spirituality. We do, however, consider quality works on all themes.

Critical essays should follow the MLA Handbook for Writers format, citing sources parenthetically within the text.

Please note that we rarely publish any manuscripts over 20 pages. Please send complete manuscripts, accompanied by SASE, to:
