New Word Order | Autumn 2025

Issue XI of New Word Order is in print!


The journal was launched on December 4, with UCD's Simon Costello as Featured Poet and Featured Artist Taryn de Vere, plus a brilliant international lineup of poets and prose writers. The launch took place in the Hendrick Hotel in front of a packed crowd.

Dr Jonathan C. Creasy (School of English, Drama and Film) as Executive Editor, and a team of 13 UCD undergraduates edited the journal, with the extraordinary addition of designer/typesetter Rossi McAuley and his Distinctive Repetition design studio, who have helped take the print journal to a new level of professionalism.

This was an exceptional NWO editorial team, and they deserve a huge amount of credit for acquiring and editing the very fine poetry and prose in Issue XI.

This ongoing project represents significant Practice-as-Research in the Mary Lavin Centre for Creative Writing -- engaging students, writers, editors, publishers, doctoral candidates, designers, and the public.
