About

East Coast Ink is the nonprofit brainchild (literary magazine) of two very different people who love the written word. It is a home for poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, book reviews, artwork, photography and East Coast writer spotlights and events. We aspire to publish four electronic issues a year with a simple goal: supporting and showcasing writers and artists who are relevant and passionate, producing their lifeblood and seeking their audience. Everything sent to us will be read completely, without a comma or article left unnoticed. We started this magazine for everyone, but mostly it’s for you—because we know you need a place to thrive.
