The Big List: Literary Magazines, part 1

Luna Park Big Lists are theme-focused lists of little magazines. Some examples of future Big Lists could be: literary reviews, poetry only journals, little magazines beginning with the letter W, literary magazines based in New York, American literary magazines based anywhere but New York, art zines, online humor magazines, etcetera. Our Big Lists are an attempt to get magazine names out there, as well as to find new ways to look at the little magazine world.

Our first big list covers literary magazines--little magazines that primarily publish creative writing. It will be in posted installments, as the information keeps rolling in, and as we devote more time to research the nooks and crannies of the genre. (Will it be 3 installments? 5? Don't know. Please check the sidebar for updates.)

Now, there are already a number of websites online that serve as databases for writers to find out what magazines they can submit to, and there are even a few (though not many) that seem tailored to readers looking for a new read. What hopefully differentiates Luna Park's Big List of literary magazines from those is that we only want to revel in the sheer amount of literary magazines being published. To revel and enjoy, even in the titles: Apple Valley Review, river styx, Tin house, Zyzzyva. We hope you enjoy all the similarities and differences in the magazines that follow--the great catholic world of literature, come one, come all.
