PFN – The Suburban Review Issue #3 Seeking Submissions with the Theme: “Subscribe”

With 2023 now halfway behind us, there’s no better time to take stock of your subscriptions. You might feel called to reshuffle your social life, revolutionise your political ideals, launch a local tabloid, or at least clear out those pesky emails that have been clogging up your spam folder. For our next issue, #31 SUBSCRIBE, The Suburban Review wants to know what compels you to rush to the mailbox, turn on your notifications, or put your money on the line.
Send us binge-worthy fiction, literary essays that are bound to spark a cult following, and poems that’ll have us signing on for a sequel.
Submissions are open until 11:59 p.m. (AEDT) Wednesday 9 August 2023!
