Vermillion Literary Project Magazine


The Vermillion Literary Project Magazine is an American literary magazine distributed by the University of South Dakota. The student-produced journal has been in publication since 1982 and is the culmination of the Vermillion Literary Project.
The annual journal publishes art, essays and short stories that center on a regional theme, but make exceptions for distinguished work from world-wide submissions.
The journal receives thousands of submissions annually and has an acceptance rate of 1%, with a large number of acceptances coming from work produced about experiences in South Dakota.
The literary magazine uses a blind review process and is affiliated with the National Writing Project.
The Vermillion Literary Project Magazine publishes works centered on a specific theme that changes each year, and the journal is edited entirely by USD students, while faculty advises the process.
