Of Note:                The Santa Fe Literary Review is the brainchild of poet Miriam Sagan, who founded and directs SFCC’s Creative Writing program. The Review gives creative writing students and community volunteers the experience of taking a publication through the full production process, from reading submissions to the final design and layout. Students read hundreds of submissions to select the works that appear in each issue. Their experience as readers and what they have learned in the Creative Writing program give them the judgment they need to make final decisions, Sagan said.
