Welcome to The Crooked Circle, an individualist collective of structured anarchy. What is it? Well, right now, it’s just this post full of oxymorons. If you want to know what it will be tomorrow, check in tomorrow. Following us would be a great strategy toward that end.

All Circle writers have been invited; applications are not accepted and probably never will be. Every writer is an editor, but only so that they can publish their own work. There are no genre or topic restrictions. We especially love poetry, but fiction and non-fiction prose are equally welcome. The only rule is that we create art here. We publish pieces written to make you think and/or feel rather than to inform. We do not publish trivialities like how-to articles, follower milestone celebrations, or top-ten filler pieces. I will attempt to overlay some structure onto whatever is created only to the extent that it makes the work more accessible to the reader. What you’ll get here is great writing. Everything else is TBD.

Come along for the ride. Please keep your hands inside the Circle at all times.

This publication is an effort of Crooked Circle Press, a small independent publishing company in the Colorado Rockies.
