* We are saying goodbye to Still: The Journal with the publication of our Fall Issue #46, 2024.
We’ve been publishing three issues a year for 15 straight years (since 2009), and we feel it is time for
us to step away from editing and publishing and into other literary projects. For now, we are keeping
Still: The Journal open, and our archives, as always, are free to use. You can find contributors by issue or by name in our archives.
Our journey could not have been possible without the support of our readers and contributors; we have never had any institutional or organizational support, and our editors have worked out of love for words rather than any salary. We’re grateful for you, and we invite you to visit our last issue and our archives.
We'd also like to recognize our other original founders, Silas House and Jason Kyle Howard, whose visions and influences as writers, teachers, and editors have remained with us to the end.
We hope to meet you again down the road somewhere. Thank you for reading and supporting Still: The Journal and for helping us know that our work mattered. Our email also remains open, and we hope you'll send us a line: stilleditors@gmail.com.
With gratitude,
Marianne Worthington, co-founder and poetry editor
Karen Salyer McElmurray, creative nonfiction editor
Julia Watts, fiction editor
