Editorial Focus

shoegaze literary is a capsule project that publishes poetry and fiction.

the magazine borrows its name and aesthetics from the eponymous musical genre where artists often perform looking down at their effect pedals.

it aims to support and uplift emerging writers through its digital venue by curating a third space for dreamy, distorted alternate realities. 

this is done through open communication, community engagement, and supporting and uplifting contributors through promotion and platforming.

Tips From the Editor

we love work that is different and surprising. we encourage writers to challenge themselves. editorially, we pride ourselves on open communication and ask for the same from our contributors.
