Pitch notes

Reviews: pitch the reviews editor first (intro + writing sample + proposed Canadian titles); completed reviews not accepted. Fiction reviews cover two books, poetry reviews three. Fiction/poetry windows closed until Dec 1 (general notice).

Our take: coming soon. Spot something out of date? Tell us. Always confirm on the outlet's own page before pitching; pages change without notice.
