The writing aspect of an author visit always comes out on its own, and I find that fascinating.” Graphic by Jay Braswell https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1760644153557-WWG2R5UWGR7PUDJXMJVG/photo+by+Iliana+Tejada+%2813%29.JPG stories - Author Visit: Harrison Scott Key https://www.iliadlitmag.com/stories/sketching-success monthly 0.5 2025-10-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/64a682aa-db93-449a-b4d2-530a9378028b/Sleppy_2Troncoso-Hernandez9.19.25.jpg stories - Sketching Success - Make it stand out Above: THUMBNAIL SKETCH: Clarke Central High School senior Miranda Troncoso-Hernandez sketches in her Visual Arts Comprehensive I class in Room 314 on Sept. 19.

My older sister, who was a senior at Clarke Central High School at the time, would bring home magazines for me to look through and I admired the creativity put into the magazine even though I didn't fully understand the program's mission. The iliad provides an outlet for student creativity as well as opportunities for students to celebrate. I believe in the many ways in which art can be expressed.. whether that be through visuals, music, words and so much more, art elevates the CCHS community. Through our club meetings, bake sales, and presentations the iliad is committed to connecting the student body through art. I have a passion for expressing the importance of art, so I've grown a passion for the iliad. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1707854724699-C1OVDPSO5Y5LOMT1MKZH/IMG_5544.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad - Cate DeMaria, Managing Editor I took a risk and applied to be a part of the iliad’s Editorial Board during my freshman year. I loved how the iliad strived to showcase the artistic capabilities of all students and teachers at Clarke Central High School. As a freshman, I did not fully grasp what I was getting myself into by joining the iliad team. Throughout that first year and the rest of my time in iliad, I have taken leaps and bounds further than I ever thought I would go. I have been presented with opportunities I would not have received otherwise. These possibilities have put the publication and me in positions to win national awards, but we would not be a nationally recognized publication without the hard work of our team. With this being my third year serving on the iliad’s Editorial Board, I can easily say that every year has looked different, but every year we strive for success and succeed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1707854825650-3R3QOIQDRXELN2D72IUL/IMG_5545.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad - Sam Caspary-Poucher, Business Manager I’m a part of iliad because I want to grow in an environment where creativity is encouraged; I love to make art and music. The iliad fosters creativity in young artists and writers by creating a platform for their work to be seen and appreciated. iliad does this through publishing student work and hosting club meetings. I love to see how the club meetings cultivate a community within Clarke Central High School for writers and artists to uplift each other. I work to make the iliad successful by keeping track of the iliad’s funds and merchandise so that we can continue to showcase the youth’s talent. The program has helped me grow as a person and an artist and I hope to continue to support creative minds. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1707855089229-RGI43E3A5OIBMB13S3KJ/DSC_7234.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad - Niles Flath, Outreach Director I take part in iliad because of the unique way the program showcases the creative body’s of both Clarke Central High School and the overall Athens community. iliad does more than just publish a magazine each year; the iliad has stories and reviews published on its website. The program highlights creative events and artists in the community, which fosters a safe space for creativity to blossom. I love how this feeling transitions to working with my team of Editorial Board members. iliad gives me a sense of community at CCHS; working with club members and artists in the community and connecting with them about their art and writing is a special experience that I’ve only ever found with CCHS iliad. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1707854907295-3N1A0F26BX4O0R7EOPVA/IMG_5542.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad - Flannery Reagen, Visuals Coordinator I’m part of iliad because I love encouraging people in the Clarke Central High School community to share their work, get published and win awards. As the Visuals Director I am able to interact with many talented student artists as well as the wonderful art department through class talks; I get to go to classrooms and talk about the iliad and other events that the iliad hosts for the community, including our monthly club meetings where any CCHS student is able to create art and writing while connecting with other creative students. My favorite meeting is our collage meeting. We always have a great turnout and it’s awesome to see everyone sharing their ideas and talking to each other while creating their own unique pieces of art. I am proud to be on the staff of a magazine that gives our community an outlet to express themselves and inspire others in the process. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1707854956631-OUE5YCUEJBLSHAOOPXG7/IMG_5540.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad - Margo McDaniel, Writing Director I was drawn to the iliad because of my love for creative writing. The iliad gave me an outlet to express myself and connect with my community in a way that I wouldn’t have had otherwise. I think that the iliad’s mission of creating an inclusive publication that provides a creative platform to Clarke Central High School is really important, and I am proud to be a part of helping engender the iliad’s mission into our community. I also enjoy the learning aspect of the iliad. Becoming a part of the program has given me a chance to express my creativity through creative writing and art at club meetings. The iliad has also allowed me to strengthen my leadership and journalism skills through teamwork, conferences, training, and other leadership development opportunities. This program is so special to me and has contributed to my growth as a writer and as a person. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1707855127863-N4F3WNE0DKRO511N8ICU/IMG_5546.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad - Victoria Garland, Social Media Coordinator After being a journalism student my first two years of highschool, I realized I was only trying to write about the creative aspects of Clarke Central High School. I looked into the iliad and felt that it would be a better fit for me and what I wanted to focus on. The iliad’s mission drew me in; the program strives to serve as an outlet for people in our school to showcase their creativity. We’re able to report and document the talent here at CCHS, which isn’t an opportunity for most high schools. Through both online and print we spend the entirety of the year working to live up to our mission which, I think, is something really special. I hope to continue to grow within the program and help strengthen our community through all forms of art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1715963746768-WMX4SS7O7IHX6A4C48IA/DSC_7234.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1715964240107-KOQYZX3YZ6V3Y14A7T00/IMG_5545.jpg stories - Why We Do iliad https://www.iliadlitmag.com/stories/event-coverage-southern-interscholastic-press-association monthly 0.5 2024-03-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/b22473af-83f4-40a0-8fa3-2a9829d56f05/IMG_8263.JPG stories - Event Coverage: Southern Interscholastic Press Association - Make it stand out Above: BRAND NEW PERSPECTIVE: iliad Literary-Art Magazine Editorial Board members and iliad adviser David Ragsdale stand on the University of South Carolina campus on Feb. 29. iliad Editor-in-Chief Olivia Hendershot felt the meaning of the trip changed with her new leadership role. “This year’s SIPA was so much different than last year’s.

Two of Natalie’s writing pieces were featured in the 2022 iliad literary-art magazine, astraeus, both of which were created as a part of the 2021 Creative Writing Project. The Creative Writing Project is an annual two-week-long project designed by the iliad Editorial Board for ODYSSEY staffers, iliad members, and Journalism One students to complete. This year’s project incorporated poetry and prose writing, as well as monologue and script writing. Though we only feature two pieces from any one artist in the magazine, we wanted to highlight Natalie’s stellar work on her CWP by creating a miniature magazine of her project, which was created by our Design Editor Eva Orbock. The project is called “Multicursal'' and Natalie says, “Multicursal means a maze or labyrinth that has several different possible paths to the center. I think of my project as representing a sort of multicursal labyrinth — a creative exploration dedicated to the confusion of not knowing who you are or what the future will hold.” As the editor of a literary-art magazine, a compilation like this is exactly the kind of unique student writing that I hope to feature to creatively inspire others. We enthusiastically encourage students to submit portfolios of their creations that we can highlight on our website. Click on the photo to view the magazine.

The iliad is responsible for organizing the CWP, and it’s one significant way the magazine gathers submissions. The project takes place over the course of several weeks and includes three check-ins and a final submission deadline. After completing the project, students will share a piece of their work in a class celebration at the end of the semester. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/5b0c8355-2057-4932-b18d-517d5f537448/54870734723_c33d6c0aaa_o.jpg events - Artist Visits Clarke Central High School’s iliad Literary-Art Magazine will occasionally host visits with local, regional, and national artists. Typically, these events consist of a panel discussion facilitated by members of the iliad Editorial Board. All CCHS students are encouraged to attend these visits and ask questions of their own about the artists’ work and experiences. https://www.iliadlitmag.com/staff daily 0.75 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/c4bf9a0d-7460-4d59-8798-83c5e15bf887/53994684418_2e9feddf40_o.jpg staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/421519e8-48df-4ef7-ac7b-87eb9cb560ff/photo+by+Iliana+Tejada+%287%29.JPG staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/112639b0-3e22-4979-918f-c65d3573c79e/photo+by+Iliana+Tejada+%288%29.JPG staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/e53ab924-c55d-476a-a39d-dafcc37dec4e/photo+by+Iliana+Tejada+%285%29.JPG staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/b8ee1ac4-b035-4e57-addd-63c45c6ab357/photo+by+Iliana+Tejada+%2813%29.JPG staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/e103e949-5197-42ff-af06-b8314056edcf/photo+by+Iliana+Tejada+%281%29.JPG staff - David Ragsdale PUBLICATION ADVISER David A.

Refounded in 2001, the iliad has served as an outlet of expression and group dedicated to collaboration and growth for the student body. While iliad has been a part of CCHS for almost two decades, in the past 20 years, much progress has been made and change has been encountered. https://www.iliadlitmag.com/join-us daily 0.75 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615a00b96819c804d663f640/1634847467269-WELXW0DW45APR9L1U4TC/image_50739201+%281%29.jpg join us - club members Interested in joining the iliad staff?
