The Common is a literary organization "whose mission is to deepen our individual and collective sense of place." They're seeking pitches for reviews of "books that feature a strong sense of place and have been released by a small, independent press within the last three months" (no self-published books). "Don't be afraid of criticism! We want your honest thoughts." Pay is a $250 honorarium for about 800 words or $450 for about 1,500 words. To learn more, refer to their book reviews page.
