I’m Terrence Arjoon. I am a writer, editor, event organizer, and bookseller, who writes poetry and essays.    

The Disinherited was published in November 2025 by Ugly Duckling Presse. I am also the author of Acid Splash, Or into Blue Caves (2022) and 36 Dreams (2020), both published by 1080PRESS.


My poetry has appeared in Annulet, Antiphone, New Mundo, The Poetry Project Newsletter, Smooth Friend, Taggverk, and Works & Days, among other publications. My criticism has appeared in The 1080PRESS newsletter, The Oxonian Review, The Poetry Project Newsletter, Print News,  and Screen Slate.I am currently the manager of 192 Books, where I am the book buyer and reading series organizer. I also edit the 1080PRESS magazine, and perform other administrative functions for the press.    

A review of The Disinherited was published by Noir Sauna. I have an interview with Theadora Walsh in The Creative Independent, and this scene report in Archway Editions of the reading series I curated at Pete’s Candy Store.

 I sometimes make poetry t-shirts with my friends Max and Max, both artists and designers.    

I co-organize a Maurice Blanchot reading group, Blanchot Club, with Nicodemus Nicoludis. We meet monthly and read one book of fiction and one book of theory.   Email
