The Bellwether Review is a literary magazine made by students at the Portland Community College Rock Creek campus. Our editorial team primarily seeks to promote the work of PCC students, but we also consider a limited number of submissions from the general public. Any individual can submit up to five poems, two short stories, two scripts, two creative nonfiction essays, and/or four pieces of visual artwork. We generally do not publish research essays or works longer than 5,000 words.   

We’re accepting submissions for next year’s issue until Friday, April 3, 2026. To be considered, please fill out this Google Form.

All contributors will receive a copy of The Bellwether Review upon its publication in Spring 2026.
