Inversion Magazine: 2001 - 2006

After five years of publishing the work of new journalists, authors, musicians and others, Inversion has shut down while its editors and contributors pursue other projects.

We do not know if this end is permanent, or if Inversion will return. For now, we're sure that we've had a wonderful run connecting with our writers and readers.

The site will remain online as an archive, and occasionally new material will be posted. We invite you to return and read stories you may have missed. We also invite you to write us—we welcome dialogue about Inversion and the stories that appeared here. Thanks for being part of the story.
