  Those two have their backs turned on each other.

  • bookforum used to be good design-wise.– Witt1/3

    I have a few bookmarks at work; i'll check those tomorrow. But my impression is literature and design do not mix usually.– Witt2/3

    thanks!– svenreed3/3

  Bartleby is pretty awesome: http://bartleby.com/

  More of a collection than a journal, though.

  All the ones I used in university:

  http://www.library.carleton.ca/e…

  You can't access them fully without being a student. However, you can copy down the names and just search Google for them to see the designs / get limited access.

  Awesome site, Witt. I love the old book terminology: Octavo, recto, verso...

  lol, this reminds me my first illustration gig was for a NY-based poetry webzine called slant-review (not slant mag). I wonder what happened to those folks. They had some really good writing up there.

  • That was back in 2001, I think. Most of you weren't even born :P– Witt1/2

    It was the first and the last, truth be told.– Witt2/2
