The Suisun Valley Review was established as a way for the students of Solano Community College to learn the art and craft of editing a literary journal while putting together their own magazine once a year. Since the first issue was published in 1981, these student editors have collaborated on a total of twenty-five issues of SVR (as there were three years when the magazine was not published), carefully selecting the contents from new and established writers from across the U.S. and abroad. The students are also directly involved with creating the overall design aesthetic and narrative of each issue. Each spring, all of their hard work and endless creative energy is repaid with a bound collection of prose and poetry, sold and kept as a testament to sleepless nights.

The SVR generally accepts submissions January through March each year.

If you are interested in editing an established literary magazine and live within or around Solano County, California, check the course catalog at the SCC website for English 58 during the Spring semester.
