Thanks Sheila, unfortunately those aren't working anymore. I wonder what happened? I know Rose and Thorn Journalpublishes confessional (they recently published some of mine), Psychic Meatloaf tends to, and any confessional that has to do with pscyhological/mental disorders/diseases: Kaleidoscope, Ars Medica, and The Abaton. The Four AM Poetry Review was a definite home for confessional, but they're on hiatus as well. Why is this? And it's tricky, because so much poetry seems to lean toward confessional/experience-based. Hmmm
thanks Sheila!
I'm thinkin' these journals also love post-confessional:
drunkenboat
Hayden's Ferry Review
From the Fishouse
Crab Orchard Review
Blackbox Manifold (narrative poetry) (Sharon Olds was in there so...)
Bellevue Literary Journal (on illnesses)
