Last weekend, I facilitated a workshop all about experimental writing as part of Dzanc Books’ National Workshop Day. During the workshop, I talked a bit about publishing experimental writing and gave the participants a (very incomplete) list of venues that are particularly amenable to this kind of writing. Below is this list. Of course, what is categorized as “experimental” varies largely from person to person, but each of these places in interested is work somewhere along the spectrum. As always, check out some writing from the magazine itself to see what they’re into. Happy sending!

Nice list. I’d add: Sonora Review, Gargoyle, Phoebe, Big Lucks, Neon, and The Reprint (shameless self promotion plug).
Awesome, Richard. I’ll add ’em!
