Das Thema "Aufbruch und Verwandlung" weckt den Gedanken an frühlingshaft sprießendes Grün und biographische Neuanfänge persönlicher oder beruflicher Art. Doch die Kehrseite dieser heiteren Bilder liegt in dem Wort "Bruch", das untrennbar mit dem "Aufbruch" verbunden ist. Menschliche Verluste, zerstörte Dinge, politische Umwälzungen kommen in den Blick, rufen Angst und Traurigkeit hervor. Wie diese beiden Seiten des Themas miteinander ins Gleichgewicht gebracht werden können, erkunden die Geschichten und Gedichte unseres Bandes auf ganz unterschiedliche Weise.

We three met at the National Theater Institute in 2013. Elena suggested this group at the beginning of Covid as a way to cope/stay engaged/be creative/etc. We generated prompts from conversations, books of writing prompts, writing prompt generator websites, and some from Suleika Jauad's The Isolation Journals. Like a lot of folks, we all started many projects in 2020, but this is one of the few we all actually kept up with. We are intentional about what we're doing: we meet once a week remotely for one hour - unless someone has a conflict and we decide not to meet, or decide to meet for longer. We don't have homework - occasionally we'll "bring in an object" or pick a song to share, but there's no expectation of work being done before the meeting. When we write, we never focus on having any kind of final product - some pieces are left unfinished, and we just move on to write something else if we feel like it. Even this book is not the culmination of all our work; it comes out of wanting to celebrate what we've done so far. This whole vibe is part of why we've been able to stick with it while we fell off of other projects. We've held these meetings on Thursdays, Sundays, Wednesdays, (but never Saturdays!) because we all work in theater and our schedules vary a lot. We are constantly changing and evolving the format: some days we invite guests, some days we play DnD, sometimes we have a plan, and other times we spend most of our time chatting. In year one, we mostly wrote from prompts and conversations, using what was happening around us and what was going on in our internal worlds. In year two, we did a lot of accountability writing - we all had other things we were working on, and used our weekly hour for that. In year three, we have expanded our structure and sources of inspiration, using more nontraditional sources to help us generate work. We decided to make a book at this stage, because at the start of year three we looked back and realized we had generated a large amount of work. We thought it would be nice to collect some of it in one place. We had previously discussed starting a blog, which we also have done, but Ivy wanted something she could physically hold as well and Tessa and Elena said fine. We've been friends for ten years, have been writing for three, and this feels like a commemoration of both those things. Common themes emerge as we write: suburbia, dystopia, the environment, technology breakdown, love. As we write about these things, we reflect these ideas back at each other, which helps us imagine them in new and different ways. In writing this book, we hope to share some of that collaborative process with you. We invite you to read, and also to take inspiration from anything that catches your imagination.

The enchanting, sometimes jarring, figure of the coyote is explored in this dazzling anthology of poetry. Come with us as the coyote's dual nature and its reflection on powerful aspects of human existence dance in verse and prose. POETICS: Coyote displays this captivating energy in poetry that has been collected from around the world. It is a fascinating exploration of the human condition through the dynamic force of narrative power, manifesting the sensual, heartbreaking, tender experience of the poet with the coyote. In our semi-annual poetry journal, POETICS, it is our intention to fully realize the purpose of prose and verse through the lens of Aristotle's argument in support of figurative language and universal truths. With this use of language, we intend to collect written works from around the world, from diverse voices, and from a myriad of imaginations in order to gaze upon one theme through the lens of poetry.

"A drop of PURE LOVEcontains an ocean of transformative power -never underestimate the ripple effect...Welcome to the inaugural edition of The Quilled Ink Review. A pure labour of Love, we could think of no better way to begin than on that note - Ode to Love.Within these pages, you will find an eclectic mix of accomplished writers from across the world, some of whom we have the honour and privilege to publish for the very first time. And yet, the language of Love, in all its shades, remains the same. It begs of you to pause for a moment, reflect, and bathe in its beauty. It begs of you to see that poetry in itself is an act of Love, an act of healing, and that the stories too urge you to dance despite the darkness.Our breath and focus are best spent on Love for what is Love but tapping into the music of our souls. Welcome to this Ode to Love."- Adiela AkooPoet, Founder & Editor

Erstmals wieder zugänglich: die zweisprachige Sammlung von Gedichten bedeutender Schwarzer US-Dichterinnen und -Dichter, ausgewählt und übertragen von Stephan HermlinDrei Jahre nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs veröffentlichte der Verlag Volk und Welt in der Sowjetischen Besatzungszone, bei anhaltender Papierknappheit, eine Anthologie mit Lyrik Schwarzer Autorinnen und Autoren aus den USA. Der Herausgeber und Übersetzer Stephan Hermlin, selbst politisch und "rassisch" Verfolgter des NS-Regimes, setzte auf die Wahrnehmung eines »anderen« Amerika, die weit über die Nachkriegszeit hinaus für die DDR bedeutsam bleiben sollte. Sorgfältig hat er dafür Gedichte aus hundert Jahren Schwarzer US-Lyrik ausgewählt und kommentiert.Eindrucksvoll zeugt der Band, der durch ein programmatisches Vorwort eingeleitet wird, von Hermlins Kunst der Übersetzung.»I Too Am America«, so verkündet Langston Hughes 1926 die Ansprüche Schwarzer US-Bürgerinnen und Bürger auf ihr Land. »Auch ich bin Amerika«, ist 1948 bei Hermlin zu lesen. Diese Edition macht die zweisprachige Lyriksammlung unter Bewahrung des historischen Wortlauts erstmals wieder zugänglich, verbunden mit einem Nachwort von Heinrich Detering. Mit Gedichten von Langston Hughes, Richard Wright, Countee Cullen, Frances E. W. Harper, Margaret Walker u. a.
