The Missouri Review
I was invited to the awards ceremony for the editor’s prizes of the The Missouri Review. The Missouri Review is a literary magazine that is edited by community members, students and professors. The magazine was founded in 1978 and publishes four issues annually. On Saturday night, I got to hear some up and coming authors from the area share their award-winning works chosen to be included in the Missouri Review.
My friend works for them this semester, and for me, it was great to be exposed to some creative writing, poetry, stories and essays. There is a program at Mizzou to take the Missouri Review course instead of an upper level English class. From what I’ve heard, it has been a good experience for the students who have chosen that path. If you’re interested, there is also EMU’s (English at Mizzou) literary Magazine: Epic.
