If you love literature, you’ve probably seen just about every journal out there. Maybe you’re a devoted reader, bored with the adult-life paranoia and the coming-of-age angst. Or maybe you’re a writer, and you’ve been writing traditional works to fit traditional boundaries, but you can’t find a home for the stranger work that you really love. You feel like you’ve seen everything.

But you haven’t seen F(r)iction. 

F(r)iction is different. The brainchild of a ragtag team of editors, artists, and writers, F(r)iction is the best of everything we’ve ever loved. F(r)iction is experimental. F(r)iction is strange. F(r)iction pokes the soft spots, touches nerves most would rather remain protected. F(r)iction is secrets and truths and lies.

F(r)iction is weird, in every respect.

This year alone, we’ve published original work by established authors such as Isaac Marion, Scott O’Connor, Helen Phillips, as well as amazing graphic features, including the Eiser-nominated comic, Nimona. These acclaimed authors pave the way for the emerging authors published in each issue, many of them seeing their work in print for the first time.

We publish F(r)iction because we don’t want to see great literature die.

So join us, and keep the pulse of creativity alive.
