Our Literary Roots
Her Circle Ezine debuted as an online literary magazine in September 2005, featuring four departments. Stories found in "What She Knows" sought to explore the multiplicity of women's realities and to identify prescribed modes of behavior for women throughout the world. In "Breaking Form" we find works that represent a departure from those realities and behaviors. Stories in "War Cry" denote the role of women in conflicts, both the theoretical and the physical. And finally, in "Transcending Bounds" authors attempted to re-imagine the many worlds of women, offer words of inspriration, and to foster a sense of community.
Magnolia Journal
After fielding many requests for a print version of the Her Circle literary ezine, literature submissions were closed in the Spring of 2007 to begin plans for a print journal. Magnolia: A Journal of Women's Literature will begin accepting submissions in 2010.
Further announcements, including the opening of submissions to Magnolia, will be made here and directly to our mailing list. To be notified when submissions for the print journal open, subscribe to our mailing list today.
