About the Magazine
Founded in 2015 | United States
The goal of our journal is to assemble in each issue, a broad range of voices, perspectives, and life experiences. Editor Molly Hill is a Minneapolis based writer who founded Blue Marble Review as a creative experiment for young writers. Every issue is a collective effort made possible by the generosity and time of our various editors-at-large, sparked by the stellar students from the Minnetonka Writing Center, and illuminated by the many writers and artists who send us imaginative work from all over the globe.
