This is who we are.
Welcome to the first issue of Runestone.
The writers in this first issue come to us from colleges in Houston and Pittsburgh; Ann Arbor, MI and Chicago; Carbondale, IL and Salisbury, MD. They come to us from across the river in Minneapolis, and from down the highway in Northfield, Minnesota. They write about transformation. Their work transformed us. Every one of these writers can flat-out write.
Runestone Volume One features work by:
Ashley Belisle, Saint Olaf College
Mary Cornelius, Augsburg College
Rebekah Durig, Southern Illinois University
Marcallina James, Augsburg College
Stephanie Liang, University of Pittsburgh
Cameron Price, Goddard College
Michael Ribbens, Calvin College
Melinda Ruth, Salisbury University
Anjum Tanveer, Loyola University Chicago
Zachary Weber, University of Houston
Lucy Zhao, University of Michigan
Including a genre-spanning folio by Tahseen Khaleel, Loyola University Chicago.
