"When you’re living a creative life you can shelter in a place by nature—and also, after the accident, I became a bit of a hermit for a few years—and you get into a solitary rhythm. "
The Creative Life:
Emily Hyland
"Being a poet and a creative
person is something I've always been. I didn't expect to fall into
the business world. I didn't ever imagine being a restaurateur."
Mount Hope is a literary magazine produced by creative-writing faculty and students at Roger Williams University. Our campus lies just west of Mount Hope, which overlooks Narragansett Bay. We publish fiction, nonfiction, poetry, graphic storytelling, and photo series.
