About Rattle Magazine:

The Rattle is a magazine specialized in publishing English poetry. Rattle’s mission is to promote the practice of poetry, as its published in several forms, in effort to find as many readers as possible, but the primary version has been its print issue, originally twice per year, but now appearing quarterly in March, June, September, and December. Each issue is roughly 100 pages of poetry and an interview with a contemporary poet. Most issues have a tribute section, focusing on a specific stylistic, ethnic, or vocational group. Recent tributes have focused on sonnets, African American poets, cowboy poets, visual poetry, and nurses. More than anything, Rattle’s goal is to promote a community of active poets.
