Spilled Ink - About Us and Guidelines

attention!

We are Spilled Ink...

what?
Spilled Ink is a journal of creative thought, is comprised of poetry, short fiction, essay, other creative prose, black & white art and photographs. Originally a printed quarterly, Spilled Ink has moved to exclusively publishing on the web. We put as much as is aesthetically pleasing inside it and there is no "theme." We do stipulate though, that the art we accept be interesting and good.
