History

Weave was established by Laura E. Davis and Margaret Bashaar in May 2008. It ensured that at least half of the work in each issue was created by women. Weave's vision of diversity expanded to feature work by LGBT writers, writers of color, writers of age and disabled writers, among other marginalized voices. Davis served as the editor-in-chief.
