Big Score publishes in print twice a year. Each of our issues are printed in numbered editions with a cover featuring work by a contemporary painter. We value narrative prose, poetry, and criticism.
Writers deserve for their work to be evaluated independently of any preexisting platform. Big Score wants to publish your work, not your social media numbers. Meaning we read our submissions with the author’s identity hidden.
Finally? Lest we forget, narrative has the power to define not only our personal lives, but also, at the world scale, the age in which we live. Perhaps because the pursuit of meaningful work has blurred too much with a corporate-infused mentality—that snake devouring its own tail—we seem to have collectively forgotten somewhere along the way that there really can be no such thing as a great author without great criticism. That’s why Big Score pays for critical work at the same level as we do fiction and narrative prose. (And we’re not skimping for poetry either.)
This is work that matters. Big Score is a machine for rewarding writers for their work.
