Publication Options

Here are two places I found that accept undergraduate writers.

Loras College is a Catholic Liberal Arts college in Dubuque, Iowa. BSU's English department sent out information on Loras' Undergraduate Literary Journal "Catfish Creek" since they are accepting submissions until December 5. As well as fiction and poetry, "Catfish Creek" is looking for literary nonfiction as well. The profiles we have done in class, as well as the magazine article could be potential submissions that this journal could accept. There is no charge to submit a piece. They just require a cover letter and brief bio about yourself. Here is a link with more detailed guidelines. I am actually considering submitting a piece of fiction to this journal within the next few days.

Boston College's "Clarion" also accepts many different genres to their literarty journal. They also have a section for students to interview creditable writers or people who have contributed to the writing or academic world. This pertains to our class because every piece we have done has included some kind of interview to get information. For someone who enjoys this part of journalism, this would be a great opportunity to talk to someone interesting and show off your writing skills at the same time.
