"And I used to say, I am in awe of the universe, when my body wanted to dive headfirst into its vast everythingness. I have said, Honesty is important to me, when I’ve meant I need to know what the collateral damage will be..." —Orooj-e-Zafar blanketsea.com/2019/09/09/poe…

Mental Rhythm Magazine is currently open to academic and creative submissions through April 1, 2022. We accept poetry, prose, and essays relevant to the topic of mental health.

Mental Rhythm is a new lit mag focused on mental health. We love writings that make readers feel connected, not alone in their journeys. Open now for submissions! First issue coming in April 2022. #writerscommunity #writing

It's my worst fear come true, C. says when discussing our college freshman's breakup with his girlfriend. My mouth drops open & I blink slowly. That's your worst fear? C. hasn't lived the tragedies that could happen. I shut my mouth. My dark fears remain unspoken. #TinyTruth

We are seeking submissions for our first issue. We will accept pieces until April 15. We hope you'll consider our magazine as a home for your literary work! #WritingCommunity #mentalhealth

We are closing our submissions early. Thank you so much to everyone who submitted! Our first issue will be ready on 4/22.

Greetings! I wanted to let everyone know that since this magazine was for a class (which is now over) it is unlikely that there will ever be a second issue. We greatly appreciate everyone who submitted. We wish you all the best of luck in your publishing careers!
