Congratulations to @iuigenesis, the literary and art magazine housed in @IUILiberalArts @IUIndianapolis, for winning Literary Magazine of the Year at the Indiana Collegiate Press Assoc. awards! This student-run publication showcases stellar writing & artwork by our students.

We love to see writers put their unique positionalities into their work, whether that means playing with form, space, language, or even genre. Mario Stone plays with both form and language, weaving artfully between English and Spanish, in his recently accepted poem "Inspiró"

During spring break, many of us are visiting with family, looking back on old memories and finding that relationships have changed with time. Alicia Rump does much of the same kind of reminiscing with her family in her recently accepted essay, "Rebuilding Home"

Happy International Women's Day! For much of history, women often published their works anonymously or under male pen names. Today, the publishing world is more equitable across genders, and we're happy to celebrate women with pieces like "The Worship of Woman" by Elise Dobson

During Black History Month, we at genesis want to lift up the Black voices and Black stories they share through our magazine. "Being Black" by Tyler Butler, an essay we've recently accepted, speaks to the author's experiences of learning about and joining in Black culture.

Now that the deadline is passed, our editors are hard at work going over our final submissions and preparing this year's issue. While you wait, here is a sneak peak of an essay we've already accepted: "How to be Mexican American in Indiana" by Xavier Neier

During Thanksgiving break, our editors are taking a well-deserved week off. We've been hard at work every week, reviewing and discussing dozens of submissions! Here's a sneak peak of just one that we've already accepted: "Refurbished Doll" by Raeya Wilhelm
