*A message from Mr. Hupton: If anyone is still interested in submitting work to the Jefferson literary magazine, we have extended the deadline for literary work until March 11.  We have a lot of artwork already, so we will no longer be accepting that, but we are specifically in need of short stories, plays, and memoir. We will also accept more poetry. Please submit your work to jeffersonlitmag@gmail.com or see Mr. Hupton for more details.
