Decorating with HOOT
We love when our subscribers share how they display their issues of HOOT. Thanks Ana for decorating with our little literary magazine! Brightening up white walls! We always love seeing how you share HOOT!
Three! It’s a magic number!
From chicken sandwiches to turnips, and everything in between, this month HOOT celebrates its third birthday! YAY!! It’s been three years worth of bite-sized literature brought to you in whimsical ways. And it’s because of your readership that we’ve been able to bring bitty poems and stories to the masses – whether it’s at AWP or […]
Mysterious Mail
HOOT has chronicled its love of receiving random mail-based mysteries before (like here and here). And that hasn’t changed. Not so long ago (well, a bit of awhile ago – blame this editor for the delay) we got a new mail mystery. It seems to be from postcard enthusiasts that tell entire tales, in several […]
Don’t let this happen to another cat. Share poetry the responsible way
As an editor of HOOT and a lover of poetry, I get a little carried away with wanting to share poetry during National Poetry Month. Therefore I strive to find innovative ways to get the word out on the excellence of poetics. So, I thought a great way to share the words might involve drawing […]

Britt Gambino, who works and teaches at Gotham Writers Workshop in New York City, was kind […]
We came, we saw, we stamped owls on you
Whoa, Seattle, you ruled. We’ve returned from the land of writers and journals a little weathered, a little tired, and a lot grateful. Thanks to everyone that stopped by to play our dice game of DOOM, and to everyone that subscribed. Were you one of the lucky recipients of good publishing karma from our Publishing […]
Give the gift of HOOT
The season of giving is upon us! And though we might be biased, everyone at HOOT thinks that our postcard magazine is probably among the best sort of gift to give. Here’s why: It keeps giving! You get a postcard once a month filled with literary dreaminess and a handwritten note from one of our […]
We are the lucky recipient!
At HOOT we love being chosen for things. Even better if those things happen to be postcard projects (’cause we’re a postcard magazine, see the connection?). Not so long ago this showed up on HOOT headquarters’ doorstep: Because we are a group that loves writing and pictures (and pictures with writing), a little investigation was […]
Your letters delight us
Since we run a postcard magazine it should come as no surprise that we love mail. The kookier the better (or the more avant garde the better). We recently received this mailed submission (we think it was a mailed submission?) and while we couldn’t accept the enclosed poem for the online or print issue, we […]
