Monday Night

12/08/2021

Announcing the final issue of Monday Night! What started as a small print zine in 2001 has published more than 250 writers over the past 20 years. We are now sunsetting the journal to focus on making chapbooks through Monday Night Press. Many thanks to all of our contributors and readers over the past two decades.

Issue 24 features an excerpt from Heidi Kasa’s chapbook, Split, forthcoming from Monday Night Press this spring. Other contributors include Daisy Bassen, Miriam Borgstrom, Stanford Chen, Christine Choi, Richard Cochnar, Olivia Cronk, Barbara Daniels, Adele Evershed, Elliot Harmon, Tom Ipri, Kathryn Lipari, Kate Maxwell, and Andrea Rexilius.

As we begin the next chapter in the story of Monday Night, we wish to honor the poet Elliot Harmon, who passed away from cancer in October. Earlier this year, he had agreed to let us publish a selection from his manuscript, “Gray and Something.” This final, farewell issue of Monday Night is dedicated to Elliot. We miss you, friend.
