Painted Bride Quarterly’s democratic editorial policy means that we give all of our submissions a lot of time, attention, and care. It also means we take a while to answer authors who submit. This podcast lifts the veil on our editorial process by bringing you directly to the editorial table with rotating editors from our Philadelphia, New York, and Abu Dhabi offices, as well as special guest PBQ alumni and other guests. Listen in to the discussions that make PBQ. Join us as we curate contemporary writing with rigor and respect.
