Poetry & prose from the road! HCR is a quiet, tucked-away lit journal where any poet, artist, or storyteller can rest their feet and share their work over a crackling fire. Since 2009! https://hobocampreview.blogspot.com

Our open call has a theme of the American Southwest. Give us plateaus and deserts. Myths and legends. Bustling city streets baked by the sun, full of joy, grief, and stories of the communities of folks who have lived in this vast space for centuries.
