EDITOR'S CHOICE
Winter 2024 | Issue 10
For this limited print issue, we've gathered some of our favorite pieces from the first nine issues of Brown Sugar Lit!
MAGIC HOUR
Spring 2024 | Issue 9
An issue centered on a time of wonder and freedom, exploration and dreams. It is beauty captured in the light of the sun, where all creatures are one with nature, and beginnings are full of hope. It is when fantasy and reality meet, desires are tangible, and stars are reachable.
Full of poetry and art, "Magic Hour" is a fun and otherworldly romp that captures the fantastical hiding in plain sight.
THE ELEVENTH HOUR
Winter 2023 | Issue 8
An exploration of the things said and unsaid. It is the choice we make at the last moment or minute. It is despair. It is longing. It is adrenaline, do or die. It’s anticipation. It is “Will they or won’t they?” It is the last bit of will punching you towards that last bit of hope.
Full of poetry and art, "The Eleventh Hour" captures the choices we make at the end of it all.

NUDE
Fall 2022 | Issue 5
An issue dedicated to vulnerability, and a shedding of layers, revealing your true self. It’s dark, light, and neutral. It is unforced, stripped bare, yet comfortable. It is natural, and it is free. Full of poetry, art, and photography, our 5th anniversary redefines the concept of “nudity” in the physical, mental, and spiritual sense.

Spring 2022 | Issue 4

NYMPHAEA
Fall 2021 | Issue 3
