A New Kind of Literary Journal
Founded in 2007 by the graduate students in the Creative Writing Program at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Grist: The Journal for Writers seeks to present a new kind of literary journal. Grist is currently published once a year. Each issue will feature two hundred pages of quality stories and poems, as well as interviews with writers and creative nonfiction devoted to discussions of craft. Each issue also includes a Special Genre section in which we feature a specific literary genre or craft focus. At this time we do not publish literary criticism or book reviews.
