About

Our mission is to publish the best contemporary writing in a small, handsomely designed journal as a paperback and multi-format ebook, with a nod toward the “little” magazines of nearly a century ago; to stand behind our publication and our contributors by using every viable form of media to connect readers and writers; to present the stories that need telling--in print and electronically--because great writing needs great readers. Our vision is to make each issue recognizable but unique; to create a quality periodical that can be read in one sitting; to put enough of ourselves into it that the journal will become something more than just another recyclable or unopened file.
