Milkweed

Join us for a reading from the first issue!

Milkweed is a Greater Boston area based literary journal that features poetry, fiction, and non-fiction from a variety of different writers.

Milkweed was founded with the intention of seeking out writers who produce unique and thought-provoking work. At Milkweed, we are avid readers ourselves, and we aim to deliver refreshing content to our audience that makes them feel excited about the art of writing. We are dedicated to looking at stories from every angle and compiling a collection of the most raw and honest work we can get our hands on. Being advocates for preserving the printed word, we have also decided to keep our issues in physical printed form.

In addition to being a published magazine, we aim to bring together aspiring writers from all different backgrounds. We want to give people an outlet to tell the stories they have always felt needed telling, and we want to celebrate those stories as a community of creative thinkers.
