Event Type
How can you really judge a literary journal's aesthetic? In addition to reading the published work in the magazine, read or listen to the editors' own work. This rare opportunity sees all five editors of SWWIM Every Day--the only daily online literary magazine that publishes and raises female voices--read and discuss their award-winning poems. These five female editors' books and poems have won the National Poetry Series, St. Lawrence Book Award, The TRP Southern Poetry Breakthrough Series: Florida, The Barry Spacks Poetry Prize, the CIPA EVVY Gold Medal, Split Rock Review Chapbook Prize, Portlandia Chapbook Award, Best New Poets, Tiferet Writing Contest for Poetry, and the Coniston Poetry Prize, among others.
Collectively, their poems, stories, creative non-fiction, craft essays, interviews, translations, and articles on the literary scene have appeared in The American Poetry Review, TheAtlantic.com, The Best American Poetry, cream city review, Creative Nonfiction, EcoTheo Review, Green Mountains Review Online, Guernica, Gulf Coast, Michigan Quarterly Review, Missouri Review Poem of the Day, Narrative, Nimrod International Journal, Notre Dame Review, Pleaides, Poets & Writers, Puerto del Sol, RHINO, Split This Rock, Terrain.org, Verse Daily, and elsewhere. They've received residencies, grants, and fellowships from Artists in Residence in the Everglades, The Betsy Hotel-South Beach, CantoMundo, The Deering Estate, Letras Latinas / PINTURA PALABRA DC Ekphrastic, Maryland Transit Administration, O, Miami, Vermont Studio Center, and others.
In addition to running the SWWIM reading and residency series and operating SWWIM Every Day, they work as educators, journalists, publishers, copywriters, anthologists, advocates and administrators of the arts, and more.
