The North Star

The North Star is a literary magazine created to celebrate writers, readers, and the work behind every finished story. Each issue blends original fiction, author spotlights, thoughtful features on writing and publishing, literary community, and the North Star Literary Award. At its heart, the magazine is about giving writers meaningful visibility, respecting the time and sacrifice that goes into the craft, and creating a place where strong stories can be discovered without the noise of pay-to-play recognition. Issue One features original fiction, author spotlights, commentary on the changing publishing world, writing awards, and the belief that writers deserve to be taken seriously long before they become famous.
