The new issue of Split Rock Review (https://www.splitrockreview.org/) has been released. Split Rock Review (ISSN 2169-2998) is a not-for-profit publication run by volunteers that love literature, art, and the wilderness. Their mission is to publish the finest literature and art that explore place, environment, and the relationship between humans and the natural world.
Online journal issues are published biannually in the spring and fall. “To those who heed the call of the woods, kick off your boots and settle in.”
Split Rock Review is produced in part from the volunteer labor of two ELWS faculty.
