The new lit scene
A literary magazine from downtown NYC. We publish fiction about the things people don’t
say out loud. Finding authors who have an edge, and paying real money for real stories.
The lit scene is up to something, and we’re giving it a paper trail. Years from now,
people will claim they’ve been reading us all along.
