Cover image, “Blue Boat” by Phillip Ziegler

The MacGuffin is a national literary magazine published by Schoolcraft College in Livonia, Michigan.

I am proud they have included my story, “Hag,” in their Winter 2023 issue.

Their covers are always beautiful and this issue’s image is one of my favourites.

Product Description

Lynne Thompson’s Poet Hunt 27 selections are featured in vol. 38.3. Following Ms. Thompson’s contest commentary are the poems and poets themselves: Grand Prize Winner Judy Brackett Crowe and Honorable Mentions Abby Caplin and Sam Ferrante. Leaving Poet Hunt 27 behind, we look ahead to 2023’s Poet Hunt 28, guest judged by Barbara Crooker, with a five-poem spread from the judge-to-be.  We round out this issue with an eclectic collection of prose: from Carolyn Watson’s Hitchcockian “Hag,” to Scott Ragland’s postmodern World War II short “Wings,” to Carolyn Highland’s “Echoes,” and Gigi Cheng’s masterful essay “The difference between Chinese and English.”
