Welcome to our weekend conversation!


Lit mag “tiers” are something I get asked about a lot. How does a person know which lit mags are “top tier”? What defines a “top tier” lit mag? Why does it matter?

These are excellent and important questions. If you’re up to your ears in the lit mag biz, then you’ve probably got a good handle on this matter. You know your Kenyon Reviews from your Chickadee Readers, your One Storys from your Blueberry Muffin Gazettes. But if you’re new to lit mags, or if you just haven’t waded all that deeply into it, talk of tiers can feel overwhelming.

How does a person distinguish among all the journals on the market today?
