Mason’s Road: A Literary Arts Journal

Website

From the Editor

Mason’s Road is an online literary magazine sponsored by Fairfield University’s MFA in Creative Writing and run by the graduate students of the program. We publish fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, drama, and craft essays, and focus each issue on an aspect of the writing craft we wish to learn more about. Our issues are published twice a year, in July and December, during our residencies at Enders Island.

We have a blind submissions policy to give equal opportunity for well-established authors and new writers.

Submissions

We are looking for unique insights on the theme chosen for each issue. Some themes we have worked on have been Memory, Truth, Joy, Transformation, Time, Arc, etc.

We look for work that makes us think and feel strongly about the theme chosen, and pieces that are different and stand out.

Upcoming

Issue 11 “Joy” will be published in July 2015 where we announce the Mason’s Literary Prize judged by Rachel Basch. We will have interviews with established authors such as Lance Weller, Debra Marquart and Maria Maggenti.
