Artifact Literary Journal This project is believed to be defunct. (October 2012) We list other projects with similar titles. Please check that you report any submissions under the correct listing. About As human beings, our writing is perhaps our most profound artifact. It says, "I am here. I made this, and I feel something." And then. This seasonal literary journal is part love letter, part expiration notice, and part atlas. We want to know what feels vital to you. And we want to share it with others, so that it may be vital to them. Because we are here. We made this, and we feel something.
