He is also the editor of numerous journals and web projects, including gammm.org, puntocritico.eu, «bina», «Argo», «Or», Flux, Wee image, Hotel Stendhal, Sud and several others websites.

He also writes literary criticism for the «Il Manifesto» newspaper. He organised the first 'RomaPoesia' festival in October 2005 and he took part in the Bury Text Festival (Manchester) in 2011.

His texts are published in anthologies like Parola plurale (Sossella, 2005), Nono quaderno di poesia contemporanea (Marcos y Marcos, 2007). For Luca Sossella he edited in 2008 the collection of selected poems and essays by Roberto Roversi, Tre poesie e alcune prose.

He won the Renato Giorgi Prize in 2003 for his book Il segno meno then published by Piero Manni. Giovenale has published numerous poetry collections that have been published in English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish and Germany.
