Welcome OAF's Newest Editor, Grady VanWright

Editor

Please join us in welcoming Open Arts Forum’s newest volunteer editor, Grady VanWright. Grady has been a member of OAF since August 31, 2024. Most of us are very familiar with his remarkable writing here and his gentle, friendly presence. We are lucky to have him as a contributor and now as a member of the editorial team.

“Grady is a poet, author, and playwright based in Houston, Texas. His work explores introspection, independence, and the surreal edges of the human condition, often merging stream-of-consciousness with restrained surrealism. He has been published in Washington Square Review (2025), The McNeese Review, Oddball Magazine, Blood+Honey, Querencia Press, The Genre Society, The Dead Mule School of Southern Literature, Sheila-Na-Gig, and other literary journals. He is a member of The Authors Guild and The Poetry Society of New York.”
