THE FICTION CIRCUS

About The Fiction Circus

The Fiction Circus has three rings. We are a devoted, semi-clandestine organization operating out of Brooklyn to make three impossible things happen:

1) To create a free online fiction magazine with rolling submissions, reviews, rants, rhetoric, and the finest, tightest short stories around.

2) To perform short fiction con brio for the bad people of New York, wherever we can, delivered expertly in hour-long bursts inside a frame narrative that binds, illumines, and surprises.

3) To create a clearinghouse for the world's hard-working, doomed writers who each day see their world get a little smaller. We will build the largest slush pile in the world!

You got bad, fiction world. You got lazy and sad. We are going to make you good again.
