87 Bedford
We are a literary short story magazine and online curator of creative content. We are looking to publish excellent, beautifully-written and interesting original fiction from new and veteran writers. We prefer all our stories to have a literary bent but in our opinion that shouldn’t exclude compelling genre-y tales of passion, mystery or the speculative.

Aberration Labyrinth
Aberration Labyrinth is a baby as far as poetry rags go, but our claws are out and ready to strike the web with gusto. Our goal is to publish a small amount of AMAZING work (about 10 poems every month). But, we’re not looking for just anything. This is a publication that plans to blur the lines of traditional poetry. Too many publications have a narrow definition of what poetry is or what it should be. We don’t. In fact, we treasure poetry that strays from the path. We want raw, evocative, emotional poetry. We love imagery. While we don’t traditionally like rhymes, we are not opposed to them if they are well done. We love the free verse; we also love the aubade. The form is up to you.
