Inklings is a literary magazine established in 1955 that continues to be housed under the English Department at Eastern University. At Inklings we strive to give a voice to our undergraduate student body by running an annual publication that releases at the end of the spring semester. Student-run and student written, Inklings stands as one of Eastern’s oldest clubs promoting the tradition of sharing art and the written word.

The overall mission of Inklings is to publish and share creative work with the Eastern University community and beyond. Our goal is to publish unique and diverse voices and visions through the following mediums: prose (fiction or nonfiction), poetry, art, and photography. Inklings not only strives to publish and share work that meets specific craft qualifications, but work that moves the soul and reflects the visions of the current EIC and Managing Editor.
Inklings also strives to create a safe space for all communities, especially marginalized writers. This includes in print, online, and in person meetings. To make Inklings the best that it can possibly be, it can only do so if it reflects inclusivity, diversity, and sensitivity towards certain issues and topics.
