From the Editor
Posit is an online journal which publishes four issues per year of poetry, prose, and visual art. We feature a dynamic, accomplished, sophisticated work that may be eclectic in style but is always innovative, challenging, and aesthetically broadening. We at Posit believe in de-Balkanizing the literary and visual arts scene by providing an aesthetically beautiful showcase for carefully curated, highly innovative work that is not circumscribed by affiliation with any specific aesthetic or artistic movement. We are committed to publishing work by writers and artists of all nationalities, ages, races, gender identifications, sexual orientations, and career stages. We also believe in supporting our contributors, nominating their work for the Pushcart Prize, Best of the Net, and other awards, and publicizing their news via social media. We have published the work of writers like Samuel Ace, Fady Joudah, Anne Waldman, Michael Palmer, Norma Cole, Elaine Equi, Sharon Mesmer, Amy King, B.K. Fischer, Martine Bellen, Emily Carr, and Zach Savich.
