Lycoming College’s annually published, student-run literary journal, The Tributary released its second national issue this afternoon.

Managing editor Aiden Brown writes in the Letter from the Editor, “The Tributary is ecstatic to produce the second installment of our national journal. This issue deals with personal turmoil and growth. Everyone will end up in situations that are not ideal; how you grow from and deal with the situation is what matters. Allow yourself to blossom into your true skin. We at The Tributary hope you enjoy this issue.”

"Everyone will end up in situations that are not ideal; how you grow from and deal with the situation is what matters."

This year, the journal operated fully online and published two issues, the first of which was open to Lycoming College students, and the second gained submissions from around the country. These two issues were worked on by a wonderful team of students and advisor, Phoebe Wagner, Ph.D., ’14, assistant professor of English at Lycoming.

  • Managing Editor: Aiden Brown ’24
  • Fiction Editors: Liz Shaffer `24 and Colt Walker ’25
  • Nonfiction Editor: Caylin Dimisa ’25
  • Poetry Editors: Marcus Helminiak ’24 and Sarah Lanphear ’25

In the Fall 2023 issue geared toward Lycoming College students, the editors decided to exclude themselves from submitting, which is a new step for the journal. This gave the editors a more professional experience and opened doors of opportunity for themselves as well as for more Lycoming College students.

Regardless of major, The Tributary welcomes everyone to Follow Where Your Creativity Leads. See the latest issue and learn how to submit here: www.lycoming.edu/tributary.
