How to do MLA parenthetical citations with a short story?

My teacher’s having us write an essay and I have to cite a short story, but I’m confused. I don’t have the page number it was published in a literary journal, but the author’s last name is swanson. Would that just be: Blah blah blah (Swanson). That look okay…?

Answer #1

I’ve been told that just the author’s last name is fine in parenthesis. However, you should probably discus with your teacher if it is for her or not.

Answer #2

It’s just a first draft anyway. Thanks for the input.

Answer #3

go to citationmachine.net it will do it for u
