We miss attending literary events and seeing all of your lovely faces! In an attempt to remedy that at least in part we’ve started a virtual reading series. In installment No. 1 this week we are featuring four readings from fantastic past contributors Rozina Jessa, Christine H. Tran, Michael Russell, and Meaghan Hackinen.

You can keep up to date with all things untethered including the reading series by following us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook (links on the left).

We hope you enjoy! If you missed any of these issues you can still buy a copy here!

Have you been published in our past pages? Do you want to share your reading with our followers? Send us an email with “Virtual Reading Series” in the subject line and we’ll get you involved for a future installment!

Hey folks! We have been so excited watching the submissions pour in these last few weeks and we can’t wait to dig in and get reading! But in the meantime, we created a new logo and wanted to share it with you because we love it so much!

Let us know what you think!

Hope you are all staying well, and remember our submission period is open for another two weeks! Send us your work by July 12th to be considered for publication in our upcoming TENTH issue!
