SAGA Art & Literary

Magazine

"More than a magazine"

A message from the editors:
 
Being a writer is not about nursing a glass of whiskey alone at the bar. It's about nursing a glass of whiskey with a friend. You will become a better writer, artist, critic, and person by forming these bonds within your community and practicing literary citizenship. You can tell yourself that you write well alone, but it's not until you're in the workshop or writing with a trusted critic that you really figure out what you can do. The same goes for art and for personhood. Be changed, make changes.  

-Carly Davis '23 and Blake Traylor '23
