The Literary Review's 2010 Deadline is March 12

The Literary Review is a student-produced journal which annually publishes a magazine of student created essays, short stories, and poetry. We are also a club that meets throughout the semester to discuss writing and writing-related events in our community.

Each spring semester, students submit their original work and our editorial staff (made up of ECC students) decides which of the essays, poems, and short stories will best represent ECC.

The magazine is usually published in a small pressing (usually paperback-perfect bound) and is made available to the public for a small fee (2 or 3 dollars) on All Campus Day or Falcon Fest (usually the end of April). You can also contact me to purchase the journal.

ECC’s Literary Review accepts student created essays, creative non-fiction, poetry, and fiction.

No submissions will be returned.

DEADLINE: MARCH 12

Now Accepting Poem of the Month Submissions

The Lit Review Club along with the Cornerstone is now accepting submissions for its “Poem of the Month” series to be featured in ECC’s student newspaper. One featured poem will be published in that month’s newspaper. All who submitted will find out who is featured by checking out the newest edition of the Cornerstone.


Please email your poems (limit 5) as a Microsoft Word attachment to jpstroup@eastcentral.edu along with your name, email, address, phone number, and a brief bio (2-3 sentences). Please consider using proper grammar, spelling and punctuation. Poems that employ imagery and concrete language are encouraged. Also consider avoiding clichéd phrases or topics.


There is no deadline for this project.


The “Poem of the Month” feature is not affiliated with the Fall or Spring Writing Contests. BTW, the Poetry Contest will be announced later this week.
