A Velvet Giant
A Velvet Giant is an online "genreless" literary journal based in Brooklyn, New York, co-founded and edited by Erika Walsh and Emma Sheinbaum[cite: 45]. Championing work that resists binary categories between poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, the magazine publishes cross-genre experiments, flash pieces, found writing, and visual art illustrated by Francesca Hodge[cite: 45]. The editors especially welcome submissions from genderqueer and LGBTQIA+ creators, women, people of color, global writers, people living with disabilities or chronic illness, and survivors[cite: 45].
