Literary Magazines | Lawrence Dagstine: Author

I’ve currently got a work of futurist fiction (spec-fic with a steampunk aesthetic tossed in for good measure), appearing in the current edition of DASH Literary Journal. No. #16, 2023. This is the official literary magazine of California State University. Out of Fullerton’s Comparative English Studies Department for Language and Linguistics. I actually studied linguistics back in the 1990s but ended up graduating in journalism and the science of publishing. I used to submit to a handful of literary magazines when I was first starting out in the fiction field. DASH No. #16 features poetry AND fiction, and the short stories in Volume #16 come from the likes of: J.M. Williams, Daniel Webre, Robert S. Gordon, Myself, Mark Silcox, Jared Livingston, James Fowler, and there is a TON of non-fiction. It’s very well put together. I will say that. Links, pics below with website info.

This is a fine-looking import, that’s all I have to say. A Spectrum Fantastic Arts award-winning, Anti-Pop, culture-clashing literary magazine which kicks you in the balls at light speed. This magazine breaks the rules, and then some. The quality of material is remarkable. It’s a themed journal, and the running theme for Issue #4 is: QUEER & LOATHING IN WONDERLAND. Edited by Adam Lowe, and distributed by Dog Horn Publishing (www.doghornpublishing.com). Creative Director is Michael Dark.
