About Shakti
"Shakti" is a literary magazine founded in the
Fall of 1999 whose pages explore a variety of themes exploring
South Asian identity, South "Asian Americans,"
experiences in South Asia, or some aspect of South Asian
culture and life. Shakti's authors are both South Asian
and non-South Asian. Shakti's editorial board encourages
all types and varieties of submissions--creative, reflective,
personal, and otherwise. Pieces may also be submitted
anonymously.
Last year, Shakti was funded by several grants from private
sources and academic departments, and established itself
as a firm and respected voice and forum for South Asian
artists on campus. This year, we hope to produce an even
more rich, colorful issue containing writings by students
from a variety of South Asian and South Asian American
backgrounds.
Organization
Currently, Shakti is headed and edited by Sunita Puri.
Once mobilized, Shakti will have an editorial board, and
it, of course, is open to all South Asia-related submissions.
We are always looking for writers, editors, fundraisers,
and artists/photographers to help make our magazine a
success. If you are interested in helping in the production
of Shakti, or in submitting a piece of writing, please
contact us:
