Kismet
Kismet is a New York-based literary magazine founded in 2025 that explores spirituality, mysticism, religion, and contemporary questions of meaning through literature. It publishes poetry, fiction, essays, and literary criticism by emerging and established writers from around the world. The magazine is a project of Nearness, a cooperative organization that creates peer-support programs focused on life's larger questions. In 2026, Kismet expanded into print publication, with three print editions planned annually alongside its online writing.
