During that time we also published a twice-weekly blog featuring essays about contemporary literature and culture. We also launched a podcast featuring conversations with Slant authors and others. A representative from Slant attended a couple major national conferences to promote Slant. In 2024 Slant published nine outstanding literary titles, several of which won major literary awards
