The Bleeding Margin

Mission Statement

The Bleeding Margin is a quarterly literary journal dedicated to publishing bold and thought-provoking literary horror, mystery and thriller fiction, poetry, art and creative nonfiction. We spotlight new and emerging authors, poets and artists who work at the margins of the genre and are unafraid to experiment and challenge the boundaries of the genre.

We believe dark fiction is best when it is bold, honest, unflinching and reflective of our collective experience as humans seeking to understand our purpose and place.
