Creative Vision
We are a literary annual that welcomes fiction, creative non-fiction, poetry, drama, literary criticism, and those graphic narratives that can be successfully reproduced into black and white photography.
We serve as a vehicle for emerging writers who attend ºìÐÓÊÓÆµ or reside in one of the seven counties within ºìÐÓÊÓÆµâ€™s service region.
