A literary place for the fringe.

Skink Beat Review is an online literary journal: a labor of love founded in 2021 to give space to the untraditional.
We do not seek shock value: we want magnificent voice that moves in unexpected ways.
Hybrid and experimental work is a must. We adore when artists include original art. Minimal departure, brevity, turns of phrase that hold us in pause.
We publish 4x a year. Special issues when warranted. See submissions page for more details.
Skink Beat Review is defiantly and cheerfully in opposition to the oppression of women, bipoc, and lqbtq+ persons currently under attack in America.
We dissent.
