Kim Chinquee, associate professor of English and editor in chief of Buffalo State’s ELJ, recently made her eighth appearance in the literary journal Conjunctions (a total of 26 stories so far.) This issue, Works & Days, features six of her fictions alongside writers Sandra Cisneros, Rick Moody, and Joyce Carol Oates. 

Ms. Chinquee’s first appearance in Conjunctions was in 2005 with Five Stories (five of her stories).

Published by Bard College, with editorial offices in New York City and Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, Conjunctions is a cornerstone of contemporary literary publishing. Since 1981, the journal has been a living notebook in which authors can write freely and audiences read dangerously.

According to its website: “Bard College’s literary journal Conjunctions publishes innovative fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction by emerging voices and contemporary masters. For some four decades, Conjunctions has challenged accepted forms and styles, with equal emphasis on groundbreaking experimentation and rigorous quality. We are committed to launching and supporting the careers of unknown authors—William T. Vollmann, David Foster Wallace, Karen Russell, Isabella Hammad, and Raven Leilani all had some of their very first publications in Conjunctions—while providing a space for better-known voices—like John Ashbery, Sandra Cisneros, William H. Gass, Sigrid Nunez, or Joyce Carol Oates—to work outside audience expectations.”
