About Tethered Literary

The collective seeks to support the growth of under-published writers and artists and foster community. Founded by COVID-era graduates of the Oregon State University-Cascades Creative Writing program from across the US and Canada, Tethered Literary was developed while holding close a conviction of interconnectedness.

The heart of their idea is to provide space for writers and artists to get their work out into the world and know it won’t just be a one-time thing.

The top of their website heralds, “Spin your webs strong, your stories thick. send your words out from their corners into the world and watch: they pull us along.”

While Tethered Literary is open to contributions from all kinds of writers, they are especially interested in providing a home for work by writers with few to no current publications and by those from traditionally marginalized backgrounds whose voices are too often neglected. This is a space where writers who aspire to be heard can converge.
