Doubleback Review Seeks Associate Poetry Editor

Does rifling through poetic lost and found bins sound like your idea of a good time? Do you hate to see good poems disappear into the void? Do you have a weird thing for poems, zombies, and zombie poems?

Join the Doubleback Review team!

It can be disheartening when a journal where you’ve published goes defunct, taking your work with it. Enter Doubleback Review! We only accept work that was previously published but is no longer available online or in active print circulation. We resuscitate dead art and release it back into the wild. And you can help!

Doubleback Review is looking for an Associate Poetry Editor. This is a remote, volunteer position. Responsibilities include reviewing poetry submissions for bi-annual issues, logging comments in an online database, and participating in virtual editorial meetings a few times a year. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about poetry, communicates openly and skillfully, and is able to self-motivate to work toward long-term deadlines. Previous editing experience is preferred but not required.

If you’re interested, please send your resume and a short cover letter telling us why you’re a good fit for Doubleback Review to Managing Editor Krista Cox at krista@doublebackreview.com.
