In 2019 I was 39. I felt too old and too late but I was like let me try getting back into writing. I was promptly rejected all over again and reminded that I suck. So then I said fuck it, and completely made up the most prestigious literary magazine of all time. Become a writer

a beloved NYU prof told me my poetry was great, but there is no market for what I do and I wouldn’t make it to a full-length. book 2 comes out this fall & I’m working on my third rn 😉
Just an fyi that we are DarkWinter Press and Literary Magazine, not DarkLit Press. For some reason, we’re getting posts about them and some controversy they’re involved in. Not us!!
RT @RitaMookerjee: come take my workshop this sunday! I’m gonna dunk on keats!
ALT Ekphrasis affords us the opportunity to bind our words to our favorite (or least favorite) works of art. In this workshop with Dr. Rita Mookerjee, we will push the boundaries of ekphrastic writing to add elements of comedy, wonder, and rage. We will discuss the history of ekphrastic writing and analyze contemporary works that celebrate this versatile tradition before closing with some prompts.
