The Palindromist

The Palindromist is a magazine devoted to palindromes, published since 1996. Initially it was published biannually. The frequency switched to irregular.[1] It is edited by Mark Saltveit, a Portland-based stand-up comedian who won the first-ever World Palindrome Championship.[2][3][4]

Each issue of the magazine prints a variety of palindromes in various forms (letter-unit, word-unit, and vertical), covers palindrome-related news, and seeks to accredit writers of famous palindromes.[5][6] The magazine also covers closely related forms of wordplay, including calculator words and written charades.[6]

The magazine organizes the SymmyS Awards, an annual palindrome competition adjudicated by a celebrity panel. Past judges have included Will Shortz, MC Paul Barman, Ben Zimmer, David Allen Cress, "Weird Al" Yankovic, Demetri Martin, and John Flansburgh.[7][8][2]
