History

Originally founded by Rudolfo Anaya, Gene Frumkin, David Johnson, Patricia Clark Smith, and Lee Bartlett in 1989, the Blue Mesa Review emerged as a source of innovative writing produced in the Southwest. Over the years the magazine’s nuance has changed, sometimes shifting towards more craft-oriented work, other times re-aligning with its original roots.

Currently

Blue Mesa Review has gone through many changes over the years, and is simply looking for good writing these days. It doesn't necessarily have to be focused on the Southwest, although that's always appreciated. Innovation and good writing are at the heart of this literary journal's aesthetic.
