Inter et Inter

A Journal of Possibility

Call for submissions.

About:

Inter et Inter from the Latin means Between and Between. Pseudonym of Kierkegaard for The Crisis and Crisis for an Actress in Christian Discourses.

Inter et Inter Magazine aspires to showcase speculative writing and multi media text and art. We plan on publishing online issues biannually (May and December) and to compose a print version featuring work from both issues annually. We invite writing and art that—on the spectrum of genre—falls somewhere in-between. 

What We’re Looking For:

Whether in the form of a manifesto, poesy, mockumentary, creative nonfiction essay-ing, or collage, we seek writing and art with that something special, not so easily defined, that gives you that aha moment.  To give a sense of what we are looking for, here is a list of some favorites in the form of writing:

Italo Calvino: Invisible Cities

Clarice Lispector: Family Ties

Jorge Luis Borges: Ficciones

Beckett: (Especially “The Unnamable”)

Kierkegaard: Fear and Trembling and The Sickness Unto Death

Maggie Nelson: Bluets

Rilke: The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge

Octavia Butler Parable of the Sower
