WRITE.

EDIT.

PUBLISH.

You can write anywhere, it’s

true. But here in the Piney

Woods of East Texas, a place

of rolling hills, bluebonnets,

and barbecue, you can do so

much more. Because, let’s be

honest, the writing is only the

beginning.

It’s right there in our name.

We’re an MFA program in

creative writing, editing, and

publishing. A short drive from

Houston and the Gulf Coast,

we’re home to the Texas

Review Press and the Texas

Review, as well as the National

Book Awards Festival.

So, if you’re a writer who

wants to do more, come write

here. Come make books here.

Come to Texas.
