Editorial Focus
Braided Way is a publication of the nonprofit Spiritual Quest Foundation, showcasing the faces and voices of spiritual practice. We publish beautiful, honest, wide-awake work by new and established writers. We seek pieces exploring spiritual development that show respect for the diversity of and interconnection between the world’s faith traditions. We nominate for the Pushcart Prize, Best Spiritual Literature, and Best of the Net.
Tips From the Editor
The "spiritual" is there to acknowledge every path including agnostic, mystic, Catholic, Buddhist, pagan, Flying Spaghetti Monster, all of it. We do not publish exortations or denunciations. Awe, wonder, and the full spectrum of experience welcome.
