Editorial Focus

A biannual compendium of writing from women and gender-diverse people.

Tips From the Editor

For this fourth issue of kerning, we’re looking for writing that tackles visibility and the body, and the journeys of discovery, healing, and even destruction that are undertaken to lay the truth bare. What stories do our bodies hold and which do they (try to) release? What experiences leave a mark on our bodies and why? What does the body know that we don’t? And how does our relationship with our bodies impact the stories we tell about them or about ourselves?
