the bridge publishes the best fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and visual art by current undergraduate and graduate students at Bridgewater State University, as well as work by alumni.
The staff of Volume 18 will review submissions from November 1st until December 18th, and respond within three to four months. We accept simultaneous submissions, as long as you notify us at thebridgejournal@bridgew.edu if your work is accepted for publication elsewhere.
Please note, submissions may be subject to editorial review.
