Narrative Magazine

Not since the Gutenberg Bible has there been a publishing revolution to match that of the Internet. Yet, even as the Internet enlarges our view, it diminishes our literary horizons. The people who write great stories have fewer places to publish and fewer people to read their work. In the United States alone, there has been a loss of twenty million readers between the ages of eighteen and forty. That¹s why Narrative Magazine was founded in 2003 with the single mission to bring great literature into the digital age, and to provide it for free. Stories, poetry, essays, novel excerpts, articles, and interviews are available?without subscription?to readers everywhere. Narrative regularly publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, including stories, novels, novel excerpts, novellas, personal essays, humor, sketches, memoirs, literary biographies, commentary, reportage, interviews, and features of interest to readers who take pleasure in storytelling and imaginative prose. For poetry submissions, Narrative is open to all forms and genres. Manuscript submission via online system.
