About SWIMM
SWWIM (Supporting Women Writers in Miami) was co-founded by Jen Karetnick and Catherine Esposito Prescott. SWWIM is a nonprofit organization that sustains and amplifies women poets by creating a living archive of contemporary poetry, cultivating community, and connecting poets across generations while solidifying Miami as a nexus for the literary arts.
SWWIM publishes, promotes, and celebrates women-identifying writers and all gender-expansive definitions of that term with a year-round reading series held at The Betsy-South Beach in Miami Beach, FL and the online poetry journal SWWIM Every Day.
Poems first published in SWWIM Every Day have been included in Best American Poetry and the Best American Poetry blog, Best of the Net, Best Spiritual Literature, The Orison Anthology, Poets.org, Poetry Daily, The Slowdown, Substack Reads, The Writer’s Almanac, and Women's Voices for Change, among other awards anthologies, podcasts, and columns, and have garnered Pushcart nominations from contributing editors. SWWIM Every Day was honored by Miami New Times as the “Best Literary Publication” in 2025.
