NYU Local Praises West 10th's Legitimacy

In an article on literary magazines at NYU, NYU Local recently praised West 10th, calling us "solid" and "universally recognized" as NYU's official literary magazine.It is a lovely article, one in which I'm pleased to be included. It is also a short article, though, and quotes culled from long conversation (it was) will always leave things out, understandably—I worry slightly, for example, that we might get a flood of poems in mimetic homage to Donne, Shakespeare, and Dickinson; also that our submitters will think that all we're interested in is sound; don't think these things. But good work, Olivia Loving and NYU Local, and thank you.Keep an eye out for further interaction with the NYU Community—especially the forthcoming announcement about a collaboration with Citywide, one of WNYU's arts-focussed lenses.Until then, keep writing—and submitting!Phillip Polefrone, Editor-in-Chief
