Think you've got what it takes? We're looking for writing that engages--that makes you want to share it with the stranger next to you on the bus; or more specifically, that makes us want to share it with the world. We're more than willing to consider any genre, or lack thereof, whether it's a western, historical romance, or lovecraftian tale of horror. But it also needs just a bit something extra, something that makes it atypical for what it is--it has to have a consciousness of language and of itself and its history, something that will help it reach out to someone not familiar with the pigeonhole it would normally be assigned but also something that will give that something extra to someone already familiar with the relevant tropes. We're looking for writing that's open minded, and intelligent; that challenges, and delivers proper reward for the challenge. We are GUD. Greatest Uncommon Denominator. What you've been looking for in a magazine. Published two times a year, we provoke with words and art. We bring you stories that engage. Essays and interviews that make you think harder. Poetry that bares reality, more subtly interprets what it means to be human. Literature for the genre folks, and genre for the lit folks.
