Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
The riddlebird mission is to publish and promote writers of literary genre fiction alongside writers of literary fiction. The journal idealizes the childish glee we might find as adults when we pick up something that stimulates our intellect and reminds us that it might not be such a guilty pleasure to like magic at the same time. Also, riddlebird hopes to publish personal essays/memoirs with a strong and unique voice with an understanding of what Vivian Gornick calls situation versus story. Our goal is to pay writers for their work, and to celebrate new artists alongside well-known artists. We publish bi-annually (6-8 submissions at two different points during a year online) before releasing the two volumes (12-16 submissions) in an annual print publication. Finally, we wish to collaborate with several writers during each publication to revise a piece. Our hope is that an idea can be nurtured and a writer welcomed into the community.
