nthWORD was a quarterly online magazine for creative people, by creative people.[1] The magazine publishes works of fiction, creative non-fiction, poetry and art by both established and emerging writers and artists, as well as mock ads.[2] Its goal is to bring together writers and visual artists [3] and to engage people who are passionate about ideas, words, and images.
In addition, nthWORD conducts interviews with both commercial and independent artists and professionals working in a variety of creative disciplines and maintains nthWORD Shorts, a blog with a focus on creativity. nthWORD Shorts includes daily and weekly posts on art, culture and entertainment—including, but not limited to: filmmaking, literature, design, publishing, photography, and social media—as well as artist interviews and reviews on theatre, books, film and technology.
Notable contributors include award-winning poet Lyn Lifshin, director Antoine Fuqua, humorist Harmon Leon, best-selling author David Henry Sterry, multidisciplinary artist Michael Holman, advertising executive Mat Zucker of Ogilvy & Mather, award-winning filmmaker Liz Canner and RT (TV network) anchor Abby Martin.
