Soft Union is a literary biweekly featuring work that demonstrates the shape of new forms. Work that demands reading for its sound, its beauty, its terror, its human understanding. Work that risks and lingers. Work that wonders.

We are a scaling platform for distinct literary voices, especially those undiscovered and underrepresented. Contributors should represent a diverse range of voices, ideas, and forms. We privilege art over endorsement and identity—political, ethnic, sexual, religious, etc.

We hold literature as artifact, whose meaning is influenced by its design and materials. Think of the first time you held a bible. The coolness of the black leather, the solid, sheening block of pages, the way the whole thing moved in your grip like a fish. It was the word of God before you opened it. Soft Union is thoughtfully, expertly designed to offer a gorgeous, immersive, and tactile reading experience in both physical and digital mediums.
