Welcome!
We’re so glad you’re here.
Diagonals Literary Festival is a brand new literary festival—entirely online.
We publish short fiction, non-fiction, poetry, plays and screenplays of various different kinds.
It’s a festival for young and old, for those who are just starting to discover literature to those who’ve had it in their system their whole lives.
For us, literature is art and a way of life and of paramount importance to us is to treat it with care and respect.
One of our main targets at Diagonals is to promote equality and inclusivity. That’s why we aim to reach, stimulate and publish writing by people with different tastes, interests and opinions—from all over the planet (and possibly from others). Because it’s so much fun to see different people, hear different voices and experience different art and celebrate it with all the writers and readers who keep this art form alive and thriving.
We aim to make—and keep—Diagonals a beloved place where people go to celebrate literature, art and creativity—every day, wherever they are in the world.
Everything has a beginning. This is ours.
Join us on our journey of fantastic adventures and discoveries, of vivid imagination and unlimited possibilities.
—The Diagonals Team
