Reading this magazine gives me the opportunity to truly learn out to give this emotional depth to my stories.

What I like the most about this magazine is the fact that they strive to merge the Fantasy and Literary genres into a new concept. Each issue contains two short stories (and amazing artwork) and is published on their web page, as eBook or podcast.Ĭontrary to Clarkesworld, BCS is completely focused on the fantasy genre. “ When We Were Starless” by Simone HellerīCS publishes an issue every two weeks.If you want to experience something different, then Clarkesworld is definitely the right magazine for you. At Clarkesworld, they publish stories from authors from all around the globe.

It is freely available online in written and audio format. Clarkesworld Magazineįounded by Neil Clarke, Clarkesworld has been around since 2006. Today I’m sharing my favorite magazines that publish Fantasy and Science Fiction short stories: 1. Most of the best magazines out there are also completely free. Literary magazines are the perfect place to look for high-quality short stories. They bring that perfect amount of weirdness and unexpectedness into our lives. Sometimes they can also work wonders when we want to get out of a reading slump. In a way, short fiction, has the ability to explore fresh new concepts without consuming too much of our time.
I don’t know about you, but I tend to get tired of certain cliches that permeate many contemporary genres of fictions, and sometimes I just need to reads stories that break those familiar concepts and molds. Often, the literary market can get saturated with the same types of stories.
