We are a bi-monthly anthology of short fiction. We select stories charged with wit and emotional gravity right from the first sentence. You choose how you want to read them. We deliver content in every viable medium.

This is very exciting. As my friend Ted said, “E-revival of the short story has begun.”
I love this, and find it to be very true:

The short story is uniquely suited to our age.
 A.O. Scott said recently in the New York Times, “The blog post and the tweet may be ephemeral … but the culture in which they thrive is fed by a craving for more narrative.”  By publishing gripping narratives from America’s best contemporary writers and embracing new forms of distribution, we hope to facilitate a renaissance of the short story.

Thank Jesus.

Lady Chatterley’s Lover, Ulysses, Madam Bovary… these books were banned because they could subvert society. How? Again, by revealing life’s possibilities, expanding consciousness, and exploding social norms. We want to re-introduce the idea that reading can be dangerous.

Wee! Check out their website. I am sort of tentatively thrilled.
OH YEAH PS THEY PAY $1K DOLLARS A STORY. Every line on their Submit page reads to be written by God Himself:

No Submission Fees We pay writers, they don’t pay us. We are proud to support writers who entrust us with their work.
No Contests Every other month, we select five stories for publication. Each writer receives $1,000. This is a payment, not a prize. We value writing, we know how hard it is, and we believe writers are entitled to fair compensation.
No Cover Letters We don’t need to see your resume. All we care about is the story.
Grab Us We are looking for work with a strong voice which hooks us in the first paragraph and doesn’t let go until the final sentence.
