indicia: a journal curating literary arts

This project is believed to be defunct. (March 2025)

About

indicia seeks to showcase a dynamic collage of passionate and profound voices hungry to produce art and write primarily in the English language.
indicia enjoys feeling out the lengths to which language can be stretched, whether to convey a feeling, an experience, a humorous observation, a dire lesson, or whatever else a literary spirit needs to say.
indicia has no easy answers.
indicia likes the invention of new forms, the reinvention of old forms, and the innovation of anti-forms (not sure what that means).
indicia drools over weird visuals, abstract shapes, emotional figures, or paintings of sad music.
