About Sequestrum
We average 2,500+ readers a month, offer pay-what-you-can subscription options, are a paying market, and pair all publications with stunning visual arts created by outside artists or otherwise secured by our staff. Our contributors range from award-winning novelists and poets including Pulitzer Prize finalists and Guggenheim and NEA Fellows (with other works featured in publications including The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The American Scholar, The Kenyon Review, many other university periodicals, and Best American Anthologies) to emerging voices and first-time writers.
We're proud of our little plot on the literary landscape and the writers and artists we share it with. Come see why. www.sequestrum.org
