Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
MUSE is based in the Inland Empire in California, a place of rich diversity and we are especially looking to publish work from underrepresented or misrepresented groups, such as people of color, disabled people, LGBTQ+, presently and formerly incarcerated people and others from a culturally and linguistically diverse background. We seek and welcome writers of all races, sexual orientations, gender identities/expressions, disability, religions, classes, veteran status and educational backgrounds.
