UWGB Creatives will Launch “How To” Series

On Friday, March 26th from 4-5pm, UWGB Creatives will launch the first of a Three-Part “How to” series. (“How to” Series Survey/Zoom Link) This series will give UW-Green Bay B.F.A. students a forum to discuss internships, networking, and job search strategies.

Krynn Hanold, a UWGB B.F.A. ’19 alumna, will be the first to share her experiences breaking into the exciting world of publishing. Krynn has landed a job with Bloomsbury, USA—the originating publisher and custodian of the Harry Potter series.  They have offices in London, New York, New Delhi, Oxford, and Sidney.  Bloomsbury authors have won the Nobel, Pulitzer and Booker Prizes.

Don’t miss the opportunity to hear how three successful UWGB B.F.A. and English graduates started their job search, navigated that vast ocean of writing career opportunities, and landed their dream jobs. Join us and you could be our featured success graduate in 2022!

Sheepshead Review Fall 2020

As you may have heard, UW-Green Bay’s undergrad run journal, Sheepshead Review, has a submission deadline coming up on October 4th, but fear not! The deadline has been extended until October 11th! That means you have an extra week to put some finishing touches on existing pieces or write some new ones. Submission categories include fiction, nonfiction, poetry, visual arts, and for the first time, digital media. As the Morgan Johnson, the current Editor in Chief, describes it, “This means we are accepting submissions that interact with readers in immersive ways, whether that be through a reading of your work, an image with a story, using programs like Twine or Google Maps…the possibilities are practically endless.” The journal is also searching for submissions that include a theme of community this semester, however, it isn’t required to have with your submissions.

The biggest change this semester is that the journal is being run completely virtual. To ensure safety, staff members are conducting meetings online and even have the Spring 2020 issue online for anyone to look at. The Fall 2020 journal will be available in print and online, like the Spring issue and you can find the Spring 2020 issue by the Cofrin Library on campus or find it at this link: https://issuu.com/officialsheepsheadreview/docs/136_contentpages_spring_2020_may_2
