Hello Missouri Western students, aspiring authors, and casual readers. We here at Canvas are excited to announce our new blog. What’s Canvas you ask? Well, that’s a great question. The short answer is that we’re a literary magazine that publishes works from Missouri Western students, staff, and alumni. We accept various types of literature such as: sheet music, short stories, poetry, artwork, photography, creative essays, excerpts from a chapter book that you might be writing…etc. If it’s creative, can be formatted to fit inside a book, and is approved by the members of Canvas, it can be published. Why should you care: That’s another valid question, and I’ll counter it with this: how does your resume look? Let me be clear, I am not going to mock anyone for what they have compiled about their life onto one or two pieces of paper. If you have a perfect resume, that’s great, but you know what would make that paper pop for perspective employers? In case you haven’t guessed where I’m going with this, I’m talking about marketing yourself as an individual who has had their work published. There are thousands upon thousands of resumes in circulation with retail or fast food on them, but there are far fewer that hold the accomplishment of being published. So, if you have any creative pieces you’re interested in submitting for publication, email them to [email protected] for review.
