Country: South Asia
Type: Online journal

Description: Catamaran is an idea born of the tremendous creative energy among South Asians in North America. The list of "newly discovered" writers grows. As the second generation seizes and gives artistic shape to experiences here in North America, not only will South Asian names become prominent on bookstore shelves, in art galleries, and auditoriums, but also increasing numbers of South Asians will likely feel compelled to identify themselves as "writers," "poets," "playwrights" and "photographers." It is our hope that Catamaran will provide the vehicle to host and carry this creative talent. The artists featured in Catamaran are not individuals you will encounter on the celebrity circuits today, but they all have the potential for such recognition. We'd like to think of Catamaran as encouraging and sustaining writers who have recently found their creative voice and vision and need a forum to hone their craft. Catamaran will be published twice a year-once in the Fall and once in the Spring.
