Introducing Synaesthesia

Welcome to synaesthesia: the blue undressing of voice; the song-scent wafting on wind; the tongues of memory & light.

Announcements, MusicTopaz WintersAugust 4, 2020

Nothing in this place has ever been abandoned. If we sound desperate, that’s only because we know what our hands can do.

Postponing Half Mystic Journal's Issue VIII: Sforzando

We don’t come to this decision lightly, & we believe the extra breathing room is truly necessary to publishing Issue VIII with care & intentionality.

Announcing the Submission Deadline for Issue VIII: Sforzando

Thank you for teaching us the grace of sandpaper, the razor-kiss of wreckage, staccato-sharp skeleton strung up to a 4/4 time signature.

Preorders are Open for Issue VIII: Sforzando

This issue is not a crescendo but a car crash, perfect as death, sudden as becoming. It eats its ghosts alive, mouth raw & open. It refuses to blink.

"If the body remembers everything, she happened." From the Editor, Giveaway, & the Launch of Marie Conlan's Say Mother Say Hand

What a space we made for ourselves last night—& when I say space I hope you hear salvation. You’re the best love we know, dear songbirds.

Launch of Marie Conlan's Say Mother Say Hand on IG Live: See You There?

Please join us at Half Mystic’s latest gathering this coming Saturday, April 18, 2020, at 9 P.M. EST.

Introducing Say Mother Say Hand

It is a personification of the word despite: survival despite, forgiveness despite, love despite. This book speaks & we can’t help but pay attention.
