Literary Anthology

This is an anthology of writing and intimate literature.

That is, literature created from a space of self-intimacy and inner listening. What is written for the self is then presented to the collective: honest, refreshing, clarifying, and enjoyable, like the way one enjoys spending time with a soulmate they just met for the first time. Through this unique literature, we aim to bring readers and writers together through the authentic heart, mind, body, and soul space.

Our Literary Anthology brings together voices from women of the global majority around the world through the powerful vehicle of words.

Through the pieces shared in this anthology of writing and intimate literature travel the voices and expressions of the ancestors of these women, moving through time and space, into the here and now.

The magic of living exists in storytelling, whether prose, poetry, or experimental writing. Claiming the words used to create life through story, through narrative, is claiming life itself. This literary anthology acts as a creative home and space for intellectual and intuitive evolution for our writers.


All chosen submissions undergo an intimate and trauma-informed editorial process that includes developmental editing (where needed) aimed at supporting the writer in discovering, deepening, and refining their authentic voice.

From 2020-2024, we hosted a digital anthology, where we invited women of color from different backgrounds all over the world to share their literary and personal musings on the themes above. As we have transitioned into an issue-based system focused more on literature, we absolutely want to honor the pieces that laid the foundation for our current exploration of intimate and inspired writing.
