Vanderbilt Review, a literary
publication edited by TSU
English professor Natrell Young
has recently been accepted by
Syracus University in New York
as a text for its creative writing
classes. . The book contains a
collection of modern prose and
poetry from 33 authors across the
United States,
"It was a biggie for me," said
Mrs. Young, "that the book was
accepted by Syracus. I was
really surprised and honored."
The publication is the end
result of the numerous
manuscripts sent to the TSU
professor.
"I probably rejected as many
of the writings as I selected,"
said Young. "I use what I
consider original, creative, and
interesting writings."
One of the selections Mrs.
Young chose, Loyalty, was
written by TSU graduate Jean
Grimshaw.
"Many of the selections are
from unknown authors, although
some have had work published
before," said Young.
Vanderbllt Review can be
purchased locally at Cat Candle.
