Have a Literary Tattoo? Want to Be in a Book?

2182606891_bce971eb01 Have a Literary Tattoo? Want to Be in a Book? Justin Taylor and Eva Talmadge are looking for tats of Tolstoy, portraits of Poe, inks of Iriving and marks of Morrison for a new anthology. Send them on in!

We are seeking high quality photographs of your literary tattoos for an upcoming book. Send us your ink! …

All images must include the name (or pseudonym) of the tattoo bearer, city and state or country, and a transcription of the text itself, along with its source. For portraits or illustrations, please include the name of the author or book on which it’s based. We’d also like to read a few words about the tattoo’s meaning to you — why you chose it, when you first read that poem or book, or how its meaning has evolved over time. How much (or how little) you choose to say about your tattoo is up to you, but a paragraph or two should do the trick.

Please send clear digital images of the highest print quality possible to tattoolit@gmail.com.
