Hello our dear artists! Thank you for patience, but we're happy to announce that ALL ISSUE FOUR RESPONSES have been sent out. Please check your emails!
Issue 04: Currents is well into development 🌊 While we're aiming for a mid-December publication date, we thought we'd step back for a moment and share some of the books we turned to for inspiration for this issue!

I have been swimming in grief and bad news, but I finally have something good to announce.

My flash fiction piece, “The Drowning of Loki” will be published in the next issue of @icaruszine.bsky.social!

@aprilrc.bsky.social thank you for telling me to channel my grief into it.

Have you tried being a little plant today?

Turn to face the sun? Shake your leaves? Let your roots carry you? Drink your water? Crawl and grow even in impossible environments that defy physics and tangle yourself around people’s necks?

No? What’s stopping you?

There's something magical about having been awake since 4am to catch a full day of online lectures. (I am unfortunately in Boston and Oxford is well, Oxford.) - EIC Kyle

I may have stumbled into some amazing news in the absolute craziest way. If it's not a glitch, I should have some very good (and possibly belated) news to share soon! -EIC Kyle

It’s been a while since I promoted this short story, but I am quite happy with “THE DAY WITHOUT EROS IN ALL THE WORLD” published on mythic magazine @icaruszine.bsky.social! ☀️
