About

Near Window is a zine about having a view out/in through a window. Our tastes range from poetry, to fiction, essays, and beyond. As long as we feel like we’re getting a view into or out of where you’re writing from. That’s all that matters, really. I wanted to make something that was a space for softness, for emotional vulnerability, for weirdness, and openness. Near Window is about opening up, and about getting a different perspective.
