About

Dribbling Ink is a quasi-literary-pop journal that features new and emerging creative young professionals from the American South. While Dribbling Ink welcomes and cherishes the work of established artists, we strive to discover, nurture, and publish as many new writers and artists as possible. We believe in the beauty of the mundane and that everyday people create everlasting art. As such, we treat our crafts seriously but enjoy experimenting with all modes of expression on an ever-changing variety of issues. The writers and editors of Dribbling Ink live in Arkansas, are unabashed in their support for local artists, and are passionate about helping these artists reach a new and diverse audience. However, we feel the same way about all of contributors. Dribbling Ink has a plethora of aspirations and interests. We know that may keep us from being successful; however, we accept that because we do not want to limit the things we enjoy. We are passionate about the process of creating, the people kind of enough to submit their work, and our privilege to feature the work of a few brave and worthy souls.
