About Us

Welcome to Swivel: The Nexus of Women and Wit, a biannual print literary magazine devoted to smart, funny writing by smart, funny women. Swivel is based in Seattle, where the notoriously moist climate makes an ironic sensibility mandatory. Our mission, should we be forced to declare one, is to showcase fiction, essays, poems, comix and artwork reflecting the raucous beauty pageant of contemporary women's humor. In Swivel, you'll find both funny ha-ha and funny strange, but mostly you'll find that we take funny women seriously.

Swivel is available for purchase through this website (over here).
