Editorial Focus
Hellbender Magazine—formerly Cheat River Review—is a home for fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, and visual art that isn’t afraid to share its unique perspective and tone of resilience with the world. They are a hardworking team of volunteer grad students in the MFA, MA, and MA-PWE programs at West Virginia University. They publish online issues biannually—in the spring and fall. The theme for their Spring 2024 issue is “metamorphosis,” which can be interpreted broadly.
