About

At Hominum Journal, we see the writer and the body as indivisible. Beyond the anatomy of narrative, we believe that there is language deep within our bone marrow and muscle tissue. A language that reconciles the mind/body/spirit divide. A language that, when pushed beyond the physical, has the power to challenge, heal, and embody. Hominum Journal publishes those literary confessions.
Under the direction of the current editor-in-chief Evan Wang, it is our mission to publish work that, in its attempt to look outward, looks inward as well. Here, we hold our hands out for more world. We rescue the word from our inner silence. At the heart of art is feeling, and we let that save us, again and again. We are not tied to a particular aesthetic. Rather, we are looking for writing that comes from a space of honesty — whether that be through lived or inherited experiences.
