Think JournalChristine Yurick founded THINK in the winter of 2008, and it quickly achieved a national reputation for strong poetry and essays. The journal favors thoughtful attention to form and critical clarity. In fall 2013, the Graduate Program in Creative Writing at Western Colorado University acquired the journal. It is now housed in the Poetry Concentration and enjoys a growing reputation for excellence. In keeping with its original mission, THINK publishes poems that emphasize craft as well as clear and compelling content. We are looking for metered, rhymed poems, in received or nonce forms, or free verse with a clear organizing principle. We read work both from established and emerging poets. Please upload 3-5 poems on Submittable. THINK appears twice each year, in the spring and fall. A yearly subscription is $18; individual issues are $10 each. THINK is a not-for-profit venture and accepts charitable donations through the Western Colorado University Foundation, the 501c3 charitable corporation set up by Western to receive tax-deductible gifts. Any and all donations are gratefully appreciated and go directly to editing, printing, marketing and distributing the journal. |
