Berkeley Fiction Review
About the Course:
This class provides a hands-on project for students interested in all aspects of literary publishing. The Berkeley Fiction Review publishes short stories of various styles in an annual magazine, from the mainstream to the experimental, but we do not publish poetry or non-fiction. We are working towards attaining a national reputation as a leader in publishing the best contemporary short fiction. We will discuss the processes of story and art selection, layout, copyediting, fundraising and marketing, as well as the more general topics of the small press. Students in the class will play an integral part in the production of the magazine and should come out of the class with an in-depth knowledge of the editorial selection process and a broader appreciation of small-press publishing.
