About

Welcome to Mason’s Road, an online literary journal sponsored by Fairfield University’s MFA in Creative Writing. We are writers of all ages and in all stages of our writing careers, who come together twice a year for our residencies at inspirational Enders Island, where we discuss and practice the writing craft. Mason’s Island Road is the final stretch that leads us to Enders.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
