Creative writers take note: the Red Hyacinth literary journal of Mercy College is currently accepting submissions for publication-consideration for the 2019-20 edition. Last year there were numerous submissions from MA students and alumni and many of those made it into the publication. Getting work published in the journal can provide great personal satisfaction, as well as a valuable line-item for the “publication” section of a curriculum vitae.

The faculty in the program strongly encourage any creative writers to submit something for consideration. You can submit fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and artwork/media of any printable sort. The deadline for the current round of submissions is November 15! Submissions guidelines and instructions can be found on the journal site, linked here.
