In an article in The Review Review, Angus MacCaull had this to say about MER:
Mom Egg Review bills itself as a “literary journal about motherhood” but it is so much more. “Your eyes will fall out of your head,” said De Voe.

Instead of articles about motherhood, you’ll find short stories, flash and poetry about motherhood—or simply written by mothers who are writers. It also includes a monthly flash-fiction writing prompt, for those moms who are writers and who need a kickstart to their creativity.Read more here.
