Do you want to work for THE LONG RIVER REVIEW, UConn’s nationally award-winning literary magazine?
Each year the Long River Review seeks editors and staff for the following positions:
· Editor-in-Chief
· Managing Editor
· Fiction Editor
· Nonfiction Editor
· Poetry Editor
· Translation Editor
· Interviews Editor
· Blog Editor
· Editorial Reading Panels
· Production Staff
Students who wish to work on the Long River Review must register for English 3713, a practicum in literary journal editing, offered every spring. Class members read widely in contemporary literary magazines, familiarizing themselves with older established journals like The Kenyon Review, The Paris Review, and Poetry, as well as edgier new journals like Tin House, One Story, and n+1. Readings are combined with short writings, research presentations, and hands-on editing work. The class culminates with the public release of its major project, that year’s issue of the Long River Review.
English 3713 is by permission only. Students who wish to apply should e-mail a one page letter detailing class standing, past English classes, and any other writing or editorial experience to Professor Litman at ellen.litman@uconn.edu by October 16. Interviews will be arranged in late October.
