Just in time for the weekend, our December issue is live!

ogre.red/issues/2023-12/2023-1

We think this is one of our best issues yet, and a strong finish to another year of exceptional poetry and art.

Today is Giving Tuesday, an international day of philanthropy!

We'd be grateful for your support of our 2024 chapbook series:

Every donation counts!

Looking for a stocking stuffer or a small gift for a Secret Santa exchange?

We have a bunch of fun and cheeky merch on Etsy:

Best to order early to avoid the inevitable December shipping delays when holiday shopping heats up.

The holidays are here!

And as part of our annual fundraising, our books are priced at a 33% holiday discount:

Well, we actually made it onto Brecht de Poortere's Top 1,000 for 2024 list:

A little surprising since we do zero formal marketing or promotion.

Any name recognition we have is all by word of mouth.

Our December issue is a wrap!

And we're now opening the reading period for the February 2024 issue:

redogrereview.submittable.com/

It's a good idea to send in subs early. We'll have holiday free time for the issue in December, a bit less in January after the holidays.

Our December issue is filling up, but we still have room!

More prose poetry and longer pieces would be nice.

Happy Halloween!

We're delighted to announce the release of our newest book in our chapbook series, Unicorn Death Moon.

Part poetry, part art, also a planner / writing notebook - it's one of a kind:

amazon.com/dp/B0CL6ZZVRV

100% of proceeds go to the author.

Happy to say I placed a piece with Cape Magazine's next issue - a John Cheever-esque piece inspired, just for the fun of it, by celebrity divorce news and an old Taking Back Sunday emo song.

Check them out, they have cool issues.

Today is National Dark Poetry Day!

And we just happen to have a collection of dark fantasy and horror poetry in our brand new chapbook series - GRAB, by noted librettist Kendra P. Leonard.

amazon.com/dp/B0CHL3RPNH

To sweeten the deal - after you've read your copy, donate it to a local library and we'll credit you as a sponsor on the book's page on our site.

It's a thrill to see one of my eco-poetry pieces in the latest issue of FERAL magazine, a surreal reply to a Carolyn Forché piece about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
