Great writing comes to us in many ways, just as magazines do now. No longer confined to
the printed page, magazine-style writing has found a home in digital space where the word
counts are unlimited and the shareability infinite. Magazines are created for targeted (not
general) audiences who want their magazines to inform, amaze, delight, challenge, inspire,
connect, surprise and entertain them. Students in this course produce writing destined for magazines and other outlets that publish original, deeply reported, magazine-style journalism.
This site features work from Kent State students who have taken and are actively taking the advanced magazine writing course. Stories written before 2018 will feature links to where the work is published online, while those published in 2018 will feature the entire story.
