Satori

Satori is WSU’s campus literary arts magazine. Founded in 1970, Satori is the Japanese word for enlightenment, seeing into one’s own true nature.

This magazine is published in the spring of each academic year and features a variety of student artwork, essays, stories, and poems.

Pick up a free physical copy in Minné Hall or Darrell W. Krueger Library. You can also browse the Satori archive online.

Submit Your Work

If you want to become a published author before you graduate from WSU, submit your work for consideration in Satori.

Please do not submit previously published work. Review past editions of Satori to get an idea of the kind of content that gets published.

Submission Requirements 

Submissions are due on Feb. 16 to satorieditors@winona.edu.

All submissions should be contained within one file (DOC or DOCX preferred). Save your files with the title of the work and your last name. For example: Observations–Smith.doc.

Submissions should also include a cover page that lists your name and submission titles to label the published work.

Become an Editor

Satori not only publishes student work—it’s edited by students, too.

As an editor, you’ll get valuable hands-on editing experience and learn about the publishing process for literary and fine art presses.

Editors will develop a theme for the magazine and select submissions. You will also design a layout that aligns with the theme.

You can do all this and more while earning credit by enrolling in ENG 324: Projects in Writing and Language.
