SINE QUA NON: A Journal of Creative Writing | Bookmarkd
Synopsis
Sine Qua Non is not just a journal. It’s a literary revolt against the death of the author. Founded by a collective of writers and thinkers in Dallas, Texas, Sine Qua Non reclaims authorial intent as the cornerstone of literary meaning. In a publishing landscape often dominated by critique divorced from creation, this inaugural issue offers a radical alternative: a publication housing critical essays and creative works in dialogue. In Part One, you'll find provocative theory and bold scholarship from voices including John Farrell, Laura M. Martin, Prakash Kona, and Jermaine Anthony Richards. In Part Two, original poetry, fiction, and hybrid forms by Oladosu Michael Emerald, Onyekachi Iloh, Jen Karetnick, Michelle Alexander, and many more. Whether you're a reader, writer, or literary heretic, this journal invites you to cross the threshold between thought and art—where meaning begins with the maker.
