LITERARY JOURNALS

In addition to publishing their own work and teaching, our alumni and students are creating opportunities for writers. Goddard alumni have founded and are running their own literary journals, and have created community through writing groups, conferences and retreats. Goddard students run their own literary magazine as well.

Here is a list in process of some of these offerings. Submit. Get in touch. Get together.
