I have already been asked by one eager writer when the 2023 Literary Magazine Rankings will be posted. Usually, the anthology on which the updated rankings are based arrives in November, but a few weeks ago I learned delivery would be delayed until December. Now I’m told it will be mid-January before the volume gets here. I can’t do the rankings without the latest book–as most people know, the rankings are based on a 10-year record of Pushcart Prizes and Special Mentions–so there’s nothing I can do (other than test the links from 2022 to see which magazines have closed shop or changed the URL of their online presence). So, please stay tuned. The current best guess for when the rankings will be posted is January 18.
