What is a "literary magazine"?
A literary magazine is, quite simply, a magazine that publishes literary writing, which differentiates it from news and lifestyle magazines, blogs and otherwise. Literary writing includes traditional forms, like short stories, essays, and poems, but we also publish hybrid, experimental, and non-traditional forms, like prose-poetry, lyric and braided essays, flash fiction, graphic comics, and excerpts from plays. We regard writing as an art form, rather than strictly a vehicle for information. You can see more about the type of work we publish below.
