Awakened Voices is an online magazine that provides a home for survivors, secondary survivors, allies, and advocates to share their healing through writing and digital art. Submissions have come from all over the country and world, and our staff provides supportive and healing feedback to writers. Awakened Voices has published work by 227 writers and artists. Awakened Voices and our blog, The Nightingale, aim to challenge public perceptions of sexual violence by leaning into nuanced aspects of survival and healing. These fourteen issues and blog are an outlet for survivors from all over the world to share their stories and be a part of the Awakenings community.  

The Nightingale

an extension of Awakened Voices

We seek to provide a platform for even more writers to share their voices. In The Nightingale, we published fiction, non-fiction, essays, resources, and reviews. As always, Awakenings seeks to make visible artistic expression on the topic of sexual violence that is survivor-focused and works towards healing. Like the magazine, our blog is home to many genres from different voices and experiences.
