Literary Magazines ONLINE

Online literary magazines

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literary_magazine

Around 1996, online literary magazines began to appear. At first, some writers and readers dismissed online literary magazines as not equal in quality or prestige to their print counterparts, while others said that these were not properly magazines and were instead ezines. Since then, though, many writers and readers have accepted online literary magazines as another step in the evolution of the independent literary journals. Among the better known online literary magazines are 3:AM Magazine, 20x20 magazine, The Barcelona Review, Eclectica Magazine, Failbetter, Identity Theory (webzine), Literary Mama, McSweeney's Internet Tendency, Monkeybicycle, Spike Magazine, StorySouth and Word Riot, but there are literally thousands of online literary publications and it is difficult to judge the quality and overall impact of this relatively new publishing medium.^[4]
