Submission Deadline Nears for Literary & Art Journal
February 9, 2007
Metamorphoses is a literary and art journal with
a long publication history reaching back to 1989. Published annually by
Cerro Coso Community College, Met features both
established and emerging twenty-first century voices and visions from a
variety of perspectives.
Met publishes poetry, short stories, creative
non-fiction, reviews, and literary scholarship and re-produces art in all
forms.
Met now publishes students and community members
alike. Special consideration is given to pieces which highlight in some way
the geo-graphic service areas of the college; broadly, these areas are the
Eastern Sierra, Indian Wells Valley, Mojave, and Kern Valley regions of
California. Special consideration is also given to lo-cal authors/artists
and to Cerro Coso alumni and students, including distance learners.
The editorial board of the journal consists of Cerro Coso students and
faculty members.
