Veteran Journal Showcases "Craft" Through Standout Prose And Poetry: Review Of Ecotone, Fall/Winter 2017, Jill Twist
Veteran Journal Showcases "Craft" Through Standout Prose And Poetry: Review Of Ecotone, Fall/Winter 2017, Jill Twist
The Review Review
If there ever was a single way to pay homage to the many different types of handmade art, Ecotone does it with Issue 24: Craft. Opening the issue with a comforting message on writers’ need for resilience from the editor-in-chief, and ending with a thought on craft from each contributor, Issue 24 shows just how crafty, how chameleon-like, craft can be.

Towards The Whimsical, Weird, And Edgy: An Interview With Anna Sandy-Elrod, Editor Of New South, Anna Sandy-Elrod, Chuck Augello
The Review Review
We all know that you can't judge a book by its cover, yet the cover of the current edition of New South offers readers a strong hint toward the inventive, beautiful, and sometimes strange work found within the journal. Previously known as The GSU Review, New South has been publishing fiction, poetry, non-fiction, and art since 1975. Works first appearing in New South have been anthologized in Best American Poetry, New Stories from the South, Best Small Fictions, New Poetry from the Midwest, and noted in Best American Short Stories and Best of the Net …
Strong Start For New Online Journal: Review Of Scribble, Fall 2018, Kim Jacobs-Beck
Strong Start For New Online Journal: Review Of Scribble, Fall 2018, Kim Jacobs-Beck
The Review Review
Scribble, an online journal devoted to short fiction, began in September 2018, with a focus on new and emerging writers. With just three existing issues, Scribble is an ideal place to send work if you are beginning to publish your work. A refreshingly simple, attractive, and easy-to-navigate website and straightforward submission instructions makes Scribble an inviting journal for new writers.

In keeping with the preference for short and flash fiction, submissions are limited to a maximum of 2000 words. Scribble publishes …

Writing Residency 101: What The Heck Is A Writing Residency And How Can I Get One?, Windy Lynn Harris
The Review Review
Do you ever dream of a magical place, away from your house and job, where you can write for weeks at a time without being interrupted? A place of solitude where you can finish that long tangled novel draft or revise those poems you've been meaning to finish? If so, a writing residency might be right for you.

Publishing Advice: The Best And The Worst, Becky Tuch
Publishing Advice: The Best And The Worst, Becky Tuch
The Review Review
There is a lot of advice out there for writers trying to perfect their material and send it out into the world. But how much of the advice we receive is in our best interest? What should we heed, and what should we discard? I asked some writers and editors for the best and worst of publishing advice.
Forget Publishing. Just Write!, Dell Smith
Forget Publishing. Just Write!, Dell Smith
The Review Review
I recently looked at some of my old manuscript printouts. I still keep them tucked away in an old cardboard R-Kive banker’s box, hoping I have some worthy stories I can dust off and polish into gems. Well, there may be a few good ideas kicking around that banker’s box, but I can’t get past the horrid writing. I forgot what a bad writer I was. It’s all there in this tomb of fictive sorrows, embalmed in yellowed paper.The contents of that box represents the years of frustrating, difficult, and at times hopeless work it took to be the writer …

"We Are Making Birds, Not Birdcages": An Interview With Michael Dumanis, Editor Of Bennington Review, Michael Dumanis, Jennifer Stern
"We Are Making Birds, Not Birdcages": An Interview With Michael Dumanis, Editor Of Bennington Review, Michael Dumanis, Jennifer Stern
The Review Review
Bennington Review was originally founded in 1966 by Laurence J. Hyman, the son of Stanley Edgar Hyman and Shirley Jackson. The first iteration of the magazine focused on publishing work by distinguished faculty and alumni — Bernard Malamud, Helen Frankenthaler, and Kenneth Burke, but gradually more and more work came from outside the college community, and the magazine increasingly received national attention. In 1978, Bennington Review was relaunched as a highly visible national journal. Under editors Robert Boyers and later Nicholas Delbanco, Bennington Review became a testing ground for contemporary arts and letters, publishing work by such established figures as …
"We Are A Magazine Of Africa And The Diaspora...Interested In Roots, And Routes": A Chat With Alejandro De La Fuente, Editor Of Transition, Alejandro De La Fuente, Catherine Fahey
"We Are A Magazine Of Africa And The Diaspora...Interested In Roots, And Routes": A Chat With Alejandro De La Fuente, Editor Of Transition, Alejandro De La Fuente, Catherine Fahey
The Review Review
Transition defines its goal to be "a pivotal medium for discussion of the global predicament of the African Diaspora in an age that demands ceaseless improvisation." Publishing short fiction, non-fiction, poetry, reviews, and interviews with these concerns in mind, the magazine is an intellectual forum for reflection on identity. Alejandro de la Fuente writes in the magazine's submission guidelines, "in an age that demands ceaseless improvisation, we aim to be both an anchor of deep reflection on black life and a map charting new routes through the globalized world." Professor de la Fuente is the founding Director of the Afro-Latin …
Foundation+Innovation: Interview With Chad Harbach Of N+1, Chad Harbach, Justin Mcneil
Foundation+Innovation: Interview With Chad Harbach Of N+1, Chad Harbach, Justin Mcneil
The Review Review
A quick glance at the first bookshelf in n+1's office yields Goncharov's novel Oblomov; esoteric, humorous, and askew from the canonical norm, this sighting tells me I'm at the right office better than a sign on the door. A biannual journal of cultural criticism, fiction, and literary trends, n+1 has in the five years since its inception become a literary golden boy on the same sparing level as the staid and long running journals - picture The New Yorker's famous cartoon of Eustace Tilley looking through his monocle pensively at n+1 instead of a butterfly. Situated in …

"We Just Want To Encourage And Support More And More Poets Every Year": A Chat With Tim Green, Editor Of Rattle, Tim Green, Connie Post
The Review Review
All literary magazines have their own path, their own genesis. Each strives to find its place and the way to reach many readers. Rattle magazine has achieved great success in the literary world in part because it publishes poems that cause “a rattle in the heart.” This interview will take you through this journal’s beginnings and more!

"We Strive For Very High Quality": A Chat With Gerald Trites, Editor Of The Antigonish Review, Gerald Trites, Chuck Augello
The Review Review
Founded in 1970, The Antigonish Review prides itself on offering an eclectic array of poetry and prose by emerging as well as established writers. One of the oldest continuing literary magazines in Canada, the Review has an international reach, with readers in Germany, Korea, France, and Saudi Arabia, and submissions coming from as far away as Afghanistan and Brazil. Annie Dillard, Marshall McLuhan, and Margaret Atwood are among the award-winning writers whose work has been featured in the journal. Gerald Trites, Managing Editor, shared his thoughts with The Review Review.
Canadian Journal Anchored By Excellence: Review Of Antigonish Review, Fall 2018, Lindsay Gerano
Canadian Journal Anchored By Excellence: Review Of Antigonish Review, Fall 2018, Lindsay Gerano
The Review Review
The Antigonish Review reveals excellent poetry, fiction, book reviews and a single nonfiction essay in its Fall 2018 issue. Topics wide in range covered seemingly everything from health concerns to marital strife and more. Nearly half a century of publishing some of the best in Canadian prose, including Margaret Atwood, The Antigonish Review (TAR) carries vocabulary thick with glaciers and moraine, morass and Halifax, Adirondacks. More than half of the writers in its pages are Canadian or have close ties to Canada.
"Sharing The Desire To Open U.S. Literary Culture To Outside Perspectives": An Interview With Geoffrey Brock, Anna Vilner, And J. Bailey Hutchinson, Editors Of The Arkansas International, Geoffrey Brock, Anna Vilner, J. Bailey Hutchinson, Ruby Hansen Murray
"Sharing The Desire To Open U.S. Literary Culture To Outside Perspectives": An Interview With Geoffrey Brock, Anna Vilner, And J. Bailey Hutchinson, Editors Of The Arkansas International, Geoffrey Brock, Anna Vilner, J. Bailey Hutchinson, Ruby Hansen Murray
The Review Review
The Arkansas International is a vibrant space, evident in the recent publications of Anneli Furmark’s comic “Horses” (translated by Hanna Strömberg) and Ladee Hubbard’s essay “Mafolie Hill,” which describes the author's time in the Virgin Islands. The journal, published by students of the University of Arkansas Program in Creative Writing and Translation with Geoffrey Brock as editor-in-chief, seeks to place “US writing in conversation with writing from around the world.” The editors seek more creative nonfiction in translation from underrepresented countries as well as writing in English from underrepresented voices. The enthusiasm of its staff is evident as they describe …
Journal Falls A Bit Short Of Satisfying: Review Of Your Impossible Voice, Fall 2018, Petur Hk
Journal Falls A Bit Short Of Satisfying: Review Of Your Impossible Voice, Fall 2018, Petur Hk
The Review Review
Overall Your Impossible Voice is far from bad, but at the same time, not much comes to mind when I try to think of the pieces in this issue. There is a general over-arching theme of feeling out of place, of trying to find a, as Joanna Ruocco puts it in her excerpt from The Runner, “better solution to the problem of existence.” And this theme is strong throughout, for better and for worse. The majority of narrators and characters feel far away, from each other as well as from the reader, telling their stories at a distance. This …
Fearless Journal Delivers Another Knockout: Review Of Redivider, Fall 2018, Louisa Parzyk
Fearless Journal Delivers Another Knockout: Review Of Redivider, Fall 2018, Louisa Parzyk
The Review Review
Volume 15.2 of Redivider packs some serious heat with free-verse poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and graphic narratives addressing topics like death, war, racism, and more in its 141 pages. More often than not, the subject matter has a dark bent that gives way to grave themes.

Journal Takes You Into The Dark Well Of The Soul And Delivers Truth: Review Of The Tishman Review, Fall 2018, Matt Koehler
Journal Takes You Into The Dark Well Of The Soul And Delivers Truth: Review Of The Tishman Review, Fall 2018, Matt Koehler
The Review Review
The Tishman Review is not for the faint of heart but that's not to say it shouldn't be read by anyone and everyone. True, it's unapologetically cruel to happy emotions but the assault is necessary to the mission of the journal. Art, here, mimics life and there is no guarantee of happiness or resolution found in Tishman. Rays of hope and humor are found across the electronic pages prose, poetry, artwork, and photography but one shouldn't expect it. Instead, the writing weaves its way through life's infinite number of variables, imperfections, and capriciousness to paint an honest picture.

"Our Sole Ambition Is To Publish The Best Writing Possible": A Chat With Michael Ray, Editor Of Zoetrope, Michael Ray, Scottie F. Gerald, Becky Tuch
"Our Sole Ambition Is To Publish The Best Writing Possible": A Chat With Michael Ray, Editor Of Zoetrope, Michael Ray, Scottie F. Gerald, Becky Tuch
The Review Review
It's hard not to be awed by Zoetrope. In the world of small press publishing, Zoetrope is pretty much The Godfather of Literary Magazines. Zoetrope appears quarterly and offers up a wholly new look—and sometimes texture—with every issue. Guest designers have included Tom Waits, P.J. Harvey, Jeff Koons, and Mikhail Baryshnikov, to name just a few. Zoetrope has published the likes of Woody Allen, Kurt Vonnegut and Salman Rushdie, as well as filmmakers like Gus Van Sant and Miranda July. Then too there is the Classic Reprint feature: in every issue, a short story that inspired a movie is …

"The Realms Of Language And Art Are Boundless": A Chat With Kathleen Fitzpatrick And W.F. Lantry, Editors Of Peacock Journal, Kathleen Fitzpatrick, W. F. Lantry, Sanjeev Sethi
The Review Review
Peacock Journal began its creative journey in August 2016. In a short span of time it has caught the attention of the literati. More than 300 contributors have exhibited their excellence. Helming the endeavor is a polished couple: Kathleen Fitzpatrick (Managing Editor) and W.F. Lantry (Editor). K.F. in her other role is a gifted coloratura soprano while W.F.L. is a celebrated poet, respected for his layered compositions. Peacock Journal treats the text with extraordinary care. The layout is aesthetic with a visual accentuating the wordings. No wonder this journal is on the list of most contributors searching a home for …
Advice To My Pre-Published Self, Nichole Bernier
Advice To My Pre-Published Self, Nichole Bernier
The Review Review
Recently at the pediatrician’s office I fell into conversation with a man in the waiting room, the father of a 7-month-old with some undiagnosed problem. We talked as parents do in these situations when you cut to the chase. About the toughness required of parents, developed over time for that limbo of uncertainty and worry. Somewhat sheepishly he told me about a video he’d seen online that had stuck with him. In it, mothers were asked what advice they would offer their younger, pre-parenthood selves. Which got me thinking about the long gestation writers go through for their first book. …

8 Reasons Your Submission Strategy Sucks (And What You Can Do About It), Becky Tuch
The Review Review
It's a new year, friends, which means time for some serious resolution-ising. If you've been writing and submitting up a storm lately, good for you. Please ignore everything below and get back to whatever you were doing before. If, though, you feel like something is wrong, like your strategy for submitting to lit mags is not quite working, if you want to be published more frequently and in more venues you love and lust after, then perhaps some of what's below applies to you.
Sex, Lies, And Murder: Feminized Detective Fiction And The English Estate Novel, Meaghan Lanctot
Sex, Lies, And Murder: Feminized Detective Fiction And The English Estate Novel, Meaghan Lanctot
The Criterion
In Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca and Ian McEwan’s Atonement, the protagonists unravel the events of egregious crimes and their own complicity with the central tragedies. Set against the backdrop of crumbling English estates, the crimes highlight the erosion of the British ruling class at the onset of the 20th century. The unnamed narrator of Rebecca and Briony, the narrator of Atonement, are bound by their youth, age, and gender in their respective investigations into the sinister events that plague the history of Manderley and the Tallis estate, respectively. We see how the English estate is a hotbed of illicit …
The Storying Of Colombian Writing Centers, Jennifer Erin Pretzer
The Storying Of Colombian Writing Centers, Jennifer Erin Pretzer
Masters Theses
Using the results from a study conducted on Colombian writing centers, this thesis applies principles from narrative theory to posit a grand narrative for Colombian writing center professionals. The study was modeled on one Jackie Grutsch McKinney used to examine US writing center professionals’ descriptions of their work, and the thesis includes a comparison with her results. Respondents were asked to answer seven questions, two of which were multiple choice and five of which were short answer. The questions asked respondents to describe their tutoring staff composition, their center’s operations, writing centers in general, and ways their center resembles and …
English As A Lingua Franca: Improving Technical Writing And Communication Methods For International Audiences, Lauren Alyssa Serrani
English As A Lingua Franca: Improving Technical Writing And Communication Methods For International Audiences, Lauren Alyssa Serrani
Masters Theses
This thesis centers on the role of English as a lingua franca in global communication, particularly as it pertains to technical written communication. Over the 20th century, English emerged as the primary language used in global communication. As a result, efforts have been made to standardize the language and teach this standardized English in schools and writing programs around the world. Standard American and British English are dominant in academic and professional fields, which inhibits both native and nonnative language learners from reaching their full potential. This project focuses on the most prominent language acquisition methodologies - Standard English, translingualism, …
Interiority And Narrative Temporality In Jane Austen’S Persuasion, Margaret Flahery
Interiority And Narrative Temporality In Jane Austen’S Persuasion, Margaret Flahery
The Criterion
Jane Austen’s last completed work, Persuasion, explores protagonist Anne Elliot’s female agency through use of free indirect discourse and time shifts. In the novel, published in 1817, Austen mediates between different time periods — the present day and seven years prior — to demonstrate Anne’s maturity and the evolved perspective of a woman’s status in society. Anne’s shifting interiority reflects what it means to be a woman in the Regency era, and, perhaps, across time, as she breaks out of the mediated and subjective perceptions placed upon her by herself and other characters. The result is a revolutionary conception of …
Examining Fatherhood Through Historical Empathy In Tristram Shandy, Marygrace King
Examining Fatherhood Through Historical Empathy In Tristram Shandy, Marygrace King
The Criterion
Laurence Sterne’s eighteenth-century novel The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy follows the tangential musings of Tristram Shandy — musings so roundabout and convoluted that they force modern readers either to eyerolls of frustration or to a reconceived sense of humor. Within this essay, I explore the character of Tristram’s father, Walter Shandy, through a lens of historical empathy. To twenty-first century standards, Walter’s fatherhood is lacking and distant, even uncaring; yet when viewed through the lens of an eighteenth-century perspective, Walter’s motivations and eccentricities begin to make sense in the context of eighteenth-century mortality rates. I explore his unorthodox …
