| Introduction | As readers, it is the moment of resolve I find most exhilarating, when good prose or good poetry transcends the expected and distinguishes itself as great literature. When the writer, like the traveler, takes a leap of faith and chances the unexplored. All lovers of the word know it when they read it—writing that is unafraid of the territory ahead and unashamed of the country left behind. Prose sure of its history and footing, poetry unencumbered by distraction. Paper Street connects adventurous poets and writers to discriminating readers and critics; publishes submissions that embody clarity of purpose and attention to detail; presents material of integrity and meaning that heightens the reader's awareness of the physical world; and offers subscribers a consistency of talent that reflects the vitality necessary when one decides to climb.
