Publications

Segue

Segue is the online literary journal of Miami University-Middletown, and the big little brother of Illuminati, the literary print journal of our campus. Segue is edited by Eric Melbye, Assistant Professor of English and Creative Writing, with the invaluable aid of Illuminati’s student editor, who serves as Managing Editor.

As verb, ‘segue’ describes the transition from one thing to another— from here to there, innocence to wisdom, familiarity to strangeness. As noun, it describes what we leave behind as a record of that transition: wars, lives, words.

In the art of writing, all writers struggle as if for the first time from inspiration to right words. Segue’s mission is to celebrate and illuminate that alchemical journey and its destinations by mapping the whole writing process, rather than focusing solely on the writing product.

Our featured authors publish short collections of their work along with writing that explores the process behind their submissions, our “Writing on Writing” page provides a site of exchange for students, teachers, and writers to explore writing-related issues, as does our listserv, and our “Resources” page offers links to other literary journals and writerly information.

Because writing is more than an object; it’s an event.
