SWWIM sustains and celebrates women poets by connecting creatives across generations and by curating a living archive of contemporary poetry, while solidifying Miami as a nexus for the literary arts.

Happy Holidays! Happy New Year!

Dear Readers,

Thank you for being with us for another wonderful year of poetry! We’re on hiatus for the next two weeks as we enjoy time with our families and friends, celebrating the season and the turn of the year. 

We’ll resume our regular schedule of weekday poems and Friday Shout Outs on January 9, 2023. Submissions are still open, however, so submit away! And, if you’re a SWWIMmer and want to share a publication or honor for our Shout Outs, please send it to swwimmiami@gmail.com.

This has again been a challenging year. We wish you the best as we look forward to starting anew in 2023. As we have since 2017, we’ll be there with daily poems to bring us all through the darkness and celebrate the light.

With love and wishes for happiness, health, and a joyous new year,
Jen, Catherine, Caridad, Alexandra, and Mary
Editors, SWWIM Every Day
