*Editing Process: Northwest Boulevard operates using a blind-editing process: personal information is removed from manuscripts before genre editors read them. We read all submissions with care and respect, and we choose manuscripts that display fresh language, original style, and intriguing subject matter. We reserve the right to edit manuscripts as we see fit (with approval from the author), and we welcome correspondence in this activity. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to e-mail us or stop by our office (see website for office hours: northwestboulevard.com).
