Kennings Artistic and Literary Journal positions itself as a space where artistic and literary practices converge, seeking work that is formally attentive and intellectually rigorous. The journal's title evokes the Old Norse poetic tradition of kennings—compressed, allusive metaphors—suggesting a curatorial preference for writing that operates with similar density and resonance. While the full guidelines are not specified here, the journal's scope encompasses fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, indicating a broad literary remit that nonetheless demands precision and craft. For the creative practitioner, this call represents an opportunity to place work within a journal that values the intersection of visual and textual sensibilities. The absence of a stated fee or prize does not diminish the value of publication in a journal that appears to prioritize aesthetic discernment over commercial appeal. Submissions are open until February 9, 2027, providing a generous window for thoughtful preparation. In an era of rapid, often ephemeral digital publishing, Kennings seems to align with a slower, more considered editorial approach. The journal's focus on artistic and literary work suggests that contributors can expect their writing to be read alongside visual or interdisciplinary content, fostering a dialogue between forms. This is not a venue for trend-driven or hastily assembled work, but for writing that rewards close reading and sustained attention.
