MANHATTAN, N.Y. -- MS. D.L. Quesinberry, CEO-President | Founder, DonnaInk Publications, L.L.C. (www.donnaink.org (http://www.donnaink.org)) announced the impending release of a new literary and arts journal, Sans Sanity. Philip Bartholomew, Sans Sanity’s "creator" is Editor-in-Chief with Ms. Quesinberry and the DonnaInk Team, augmenting Mr. Bartholomew's production requirements as required. The journal is intended for presentation in print and electronic format, and epaperflip functionality as well. As an eclectic compilation, this literary arts journal is intended to be 'themeless' while mapping to literary and art trends.

As a literary arts journal, Sans Sanity involves modern arts derived from all the humanities.Whether Fiction, poetry or non-fiction - works are accepted; and, novice (previously unpublished) as well as published authors and artists are welcome. With true passion to find talent created from energetic and unconventional internal drive, with a bold attitude not to censor words and artistry due to fear of being considered unconventional or outside the norm, Sans Sanity looks for the unexpected talent.

Both Ms. Quesinberry and Mr. Bartholomew foster immense appreciation and love for academic and classical styles of writing fostered in creativity. In addition to traditional writing styles, Sans Sanity solicits other art forms including film, music and photography. Our intent is to fully embrace contemporary culture. Both film and music are intended for our digital editions; however, the print journal will include notations and/or apps ready products.
