F(r)iction operates as a literary magazine with an editorial sensibility that favors work unbound by conventional genre distinctions. Its name signals a commitment to writing that engages with friction—narrative tension, formal experimentation, and the unsettled spaces between realism and the speculative. The magazine publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, and its rolling submissions policy reflects an ongoing curatorial appetite rather than a seasonal contest. For the writer, the absence of a fixed deadline removes the pressure of a single submission window but places a premium on self-directed readiness. There is no prize attached to publication, nor is there a stated reading fee; the transaction is one of editorial attention. What the magazine offers is a platform for work that might not find a home in more traditionally minded journals—writing that risks awkwardness, hybridity, or emotional directness. The curatorial vision, inferred from the magazine's name and its stated genres, leans toward the interstitial. Fiction that borrows from the essay, poetry that carries narrative weight, nonfiction that refuses the tidy arc—these are the modes F(r)iction appears to court. The rolling deadline suggests an editorial team that reads continuously, which can mean longer response times but also a genuine openness to unsolicited work throughout the year.
