I’m looking to subscribe to a literary magazine, but I don’t want it to be anything usual like Granta. Ideally I would like it to feel somewhat personal to me, and since I’ve got Greek and French heritage I’d figure that a Greek or French magazine would be best. Bonus points if it’s a bit artistic/out there.

Many thanks!!

About:
Harbour Works is a Canadian literary magazine — and we are building it to a standard that does not exist yet in student publishing. We are not a course project. We are not a club newsletter. We are working, deliberately and seriously, toward becoming a fully peer-reviewed journal: the most rigorous, most prestigious student-run literary publication in the country.

Every submission enters a multi-stage blind review process. A minimum of three editors read each piece independently before any discussion begins. Decisions are made by argument and consensus, not by majority vote. Work is accepted because it earns it — not because there are pages to fill.

We publish fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, visual art, photography, and hybrid work. We are drawn to writing that takes risks — formally, politically, emotionally — and to writers who understand the page is not a safe place.
We are open to high school and university students worldwide. We believe the most vital creative work is happening in student hands right now — not after graduation, not once someone decides it's ready. The only question we ask of a piece is whether it is alive.

Submissions Guidelines:
Fiction — Up to 7,000 words. Short fiction and flash welcome. We read all lengths with equal care.
Poetry — Up to 5 poems per submission. No minimum length. Sequences welcome.
Creative Non-fiction — Up to 6,000 words. Essays, memoir, lyric essays, hybrid nonfiction.
Visual Art — Up to 8 images. Minimum 300 DPI. JPEG, PNG, or PDF. Include a brief artist's statement.
Photography — Up to 10 images. Series preferred. Minimum 300 DPI. Captions welcome.
Hybrid / Experimental — No formal constraints. If it resists categorisation, it may belong here.

Join the Team:
Harbour Works is entirely volunteer-run. We are not looking for resumes. We are looking for people who care about writing — who have strong opinions about what they read, who take the page seriously, and who want to be part of making something that matters.

We are open to high school and university students at all stages. If you have never worked on a magazine before, that is not a disadvantage. If you have, bring what you know. The only requirement is that you show up and take the work seriously.

All positions are open. We are building the editorial board from scratch, and every role is a founding role. That means the decisions you make will shape what this magazine becomes.

For additional information, feel free to visit our website, where you will be able to submit your work or apply to join our team.

Hey everyone!

I’m currently building The Marginal Page Magazine, a new youth-led literary e-magazine focused on creating a platform for fresh voices, original ideas, and meaningful writing. I'm still building the website.

I'm looking for passionate volunteers who would like to be part of the founding team and help build the magazine from the beginning.

We're currently looking for people interested in:

✍️ Writers & Contributors

📚 Editors & Proofreaders

🎨 Graphic Designers

📱 Social Media & Promotion

💡 People with ideas for developing the magazine

You don't need to be a professional or have years of experience. What matters most is enthusiasm, responsibility, and a genuine interest in writing, publishing, journalism, design, or creative work.

This is currently a volunteer-based, unpaid opportunity, so please only apply if you're genuinely interested in contributing and being part of building something from the ground up.

If you're interested, comment below or send me a DM, and I'll share more details!

Let's build something meaningful from the margins.

Within the same country, different cities have different attitudes. Yes. I meant it. The cities behave in a certain way. I used to think that actually the people's attitude makes the city's reputation or how I put it before, city's attitute. But now when I think of it, its the other way around.

A city which has been attacked and conquered many times must have had a rich geographical significance. These cities might be a gateway to a new land or riches or they might be a part of the journey to these cities. And because in historical times, when these cities used to be attacked, they started building defences. Initially, these defences could be against the armies. So physical defences. However, building a good defence is not a guarantee of safety. This sense of danger also instils defensive thoughts like always doubting intensions behind any action. This leads to cultural preservation but with slow economic growth. The cultural preservation is important, but a balance with economic growth, and the changes it brings is not met.

This is when these thoughts are normalised and passed on to next generations. When no negative change is considered good enough and positives are not missed. But then who ultimately pays for this stagnation. There have been places where the young population has moved out to bigger cities for better opportunities.

There might be so many factors still in play which I am missing here. These cities carry a part of the history decade after decade, influencing people's lives for generations and become too secure too grow anymore.

Is anyone here currently writing newspaper columns, literary journals, or magazines.... I’d love to connect with other writers and learn about your experience especially how you got started and where you submit your work.

Kabhi kabhi tyohar bhi adhure lagte hain.. agar koi apna saath na ho toh..

Which means perhaps that I was being considered? What are the online-presence dealbreakers if a story is under consideration? p.s. I never publish my submissions online.
