Editorial Focus
we started boats against the current in october 2021 to be a magazine that highlights the voices of women, LGBTQ writers, and poets from underrepresented backgrounds. we've published two print issues and 22 chapbooks and plan to publish our third print issue in 2026.
Tips From the Editor
we recently started a poetry snail mail club! every month, we send you a curated envelope with a print of an original poem hand-typed on a typewriter, an original photograph on glossy photo paper, & one surprise item (such as a sticker or bookmark). learn more: https://boatsagainstthecurrent.org/poetr...
