The Memorious Issue 001 Spring 2026 — Inaugural Issue featuring a pastoral landscape painting

A Magazine for the Written Word

The Memorious is an independent literary magazine built on a simple conviction: that the short story, the essay, and the poem remain the most vital forms we have for making sense of things. Each issue gathers work written with a yearning for forgotten truths and awaiting revelations of beauty. We publish work from both emerging and established writers, and our first print issue ships in Spring 2026. We intend to keep printing for a very long time.

We Are Reading

We are seeking submissions of fiction, creative nonfiction, flash fiction, poetry, and criticism for future issues. If you are a writer with an eclectic bent—someone who trusts language and refuses the easy answer—we want to read your work.
