''Conjunctions'', is a biannual American literary journal based at Bard College. It was founded in 1981 and is currently edited by Bradford Morrow. Morrow received the PEN/Nora Magid Award for Magazine Editing in 2007. The journal publishes innovative fiction, poetry, criticism, drama, art and interviews by both emerging and established writers. It provides a forum for nearly 1,000 writers and artists "whose work challenges accepted forms and modes of expression, experiments with language and thought, and is fully realized art," according to the "Letter From the Editor" on its website. It aims to maintain consistently high editorial and production quality with the intention of attracting a large and varied audience. The project is meant to present a wide variety of individual voices.〔() Web page titled "Letter From the Editor" at the ''Conjunctions'' website, accessed December 14, 2006〕 The publication is unusually thick, often containing about 400 pages per issue.〔() Larimer, Kevin, "The Functions of Conjunctions" article in ''Poets & Writers'' Web site, "News & Trends" section, undated but around October 2001, according to the article, accessed December 14, 2006〕 ''Conjunctions editorial approach is often collaborative.
