Editorial Focus

Dark Matter: Women Witnessing  is a response to the unprecedented changes humans are facing in an age of massive species loss and ecological collapse.  We welcome writing in all forms and genres, and artwork in all mediums, responding to the urgencies of this time. The journal is a home for dreams, visions, and communications with the nonhuman world, especially those which contain messages for how we might begin to heal our broken relationship to the earth.
We publish self-identified women and nonbinary writers.
