Although Brightleaf ceased publication as of 2000, I include this resource here for the value of its web-based archives. Published quarterly, Georgia Review includes fiction, a variety of non-fiction including literary essays, essays on travel, history and popular culture. Founded in 1948, it is a refereed, scholarly journal which publishes articles on the life and culture of the South, past and present. The Winter 1999-2000 edition is representative of the sort of work published in The Mississippi Quarterly .
Special issues focus on particular authors.
Past features have included William Faulkner, Ellen Glasgow, Eudora Welty, Tennessee Williams and Richard Wright. Mississippi Review is published twice a year by The Center for Writers at the University of Southern Mississippi with Frederick Barthelme, director of the Center, as editor. It is by no means an exclusively Southern journal. There are special issues like the World Poetry issue in 2000, and the 1999 Prize issue featuring both poetry and short fiction. The Oxford American is published bimonthly in Oxford, Mississippi.
