The Fall Line Debuts May 2

PVCC’s many clubs and organizations give students a way to express themselves and share common interests. The Fall Line, PVCC’s literary magazine, gives students a way to share their work as well as gives their peers an opportunity to see some of the talent we have here at PVCC.

This year’s edition of The Fall Line features creative writing pieces and artwork from students. The magazine includes writing that was chosen by the Creative Writing Club as well as pieces from the winners of the Writers Unite Three-Minute Fiction Contest.

This publication includes many student groups. Student art from the Art Department archives will be featured and the Communications Design Class II worked together to design the layout of the magazine.

“I think what I love about it is it’s a collaboration between lots of people,” said Professor Jennifer Koster, faculty advisor of the Creative Writing Club.

Fourteen students will have writing published in the magazine while 13 will have art featured.

A comic by Abigail Woodward is being featured about her experience of cutting her hair. Throughout the comic, you see the personal journey and results of her experience. “It’s about the gradual process of cutting my hair,” she said, “It’s been a personal thing to enjoy my short hair and do cool things with it.”

Telling another true story, Antonia Florence’s piece is called “Why then…” This piece tells the story of her as a young tomboy whose father was in the Navy and was often out to sea.

Her story is about her experience of growing up and being socialized as a girl. “I grew up as an independent individual. I was born that way,” said Florence.
