All magazines whether it be in conventional hard copy print or online will constantly be looking for new writers. It is always advisable to get to know the magazine you are interested in submitting to because a) you can decide whether your work will fit the publication and b) purchasing a copy of the magazine will show that you are willing to support it.
One such magazine, Open Wide Magazine, is one of the most respected currently being published in the world. The origins of the magazine date back to 2001. Two writers who were tired of the more overtly literary tones of the standard journals were moved to start their own to embrace writers who may have been ignored by those mainstream publications.
The magazine has grown since then into a highly professional paperback with writers contributing from all around the world. Currently each issue sells around 600 copies shipping to all corners of the globe. Aside from fiction and poetry the magazine also featured contemporary reviews and interviews.
