Untelling Magazine | Summer 2024

“Untelling” is a regional colloquialism used when storytelling or speculating, such as “It’s untelling what will happen.” It is a point of not knowing. We want to publish work that takes us to that point of not knowing, and then connects us, teaches us, and makes us see and understand the world in new ways. Untelling will be a print publication much like a standard literary journal in that it will be full of poems, stories, and essays, but we will also feature full color art and photography throughout.  Launching in July 2024, Untelling is a semi-annual journal with two publications each year. Your annual subscription will subscribe you to two issues, and a two-year subscription will subscribe you for four issues.    This inaugural issue, with cover photography by Justin Brown, includes work from 28 poets, 6 prose writers, and 14 artists from Appalachia and beyond!We invite you to take a look at the full listing of pieces and contributors in the first issue along with a first glimpse
