Body Language: Writers on Identity, Physicality, and Making Space for Ourselves.
The essays in Body Language affirm and challenge the personal and political conversations around human bodies from the perspectives of thirty writers diverse in race, age, gender, size, sexuality, health, ability, geography, and class—a brilliant group probing and speaking their own truths about their bodies and identities, refusing to submit to others’ expectations about how their bodies should look, function, and behave.
Featuring essays from a wide range of essayists, including Haley E.D. Houseman, whose work “Mapping the Body with Sewing Patterns” was selected from the the archives of Catapult magazine.
From Body Language:
“I have the tools, and the skills, and I will do it myself. I’ll grade the patterns myself. I can do it. I’ll sew the garments myself.”
Human x Nature: An anthology of unconventional nature writing
HUMANxNATURE is an anthology of writers reaching out from beyond the confines of their disciplines to engage the natural world. This anthology of essays is a recognition of the ways the world shapes us—and how increasingly, we leave our own inescapable print on the world. As our relationship to the nature world changes, we ask writers to explore what nature gives to us, and what we might owe in return.
The first issue was funded through a Kickstarter campaign in August 2018 and delivered Vol. I spring 2019. We followed with Vol II spring 2020.
