Stork is Emerson College's only strictly fiction literary magazine. We publish two issues each school year, a short-short issue (stories of four pages or fewer), and a longer issue (stories of five to thirty pages). All submissions are read by our staff and receive critical feedback. We value stories that, while they may be short in length, leave a lasting impression.

Check out some of our previous issues at issuu.com/storkstory!

Please e-mail us at storkstory@gmail.com for more information about submissions, events, or storks.


Happy writing!
