READ FICTION is a brand new printed publication designed to spring board fresh and/or previously unpublished writers in the form of Short Stories, Flash Fiction and Verse direct to the general public.
It's a unique concept in Literary Publishing in that it will be free to all readers, funded entirely through advertising and sponsorship.

Still Calling All Writers!
Thank you so much to all that have submitted for the first edition of READ FICTION.
We have been truly amazed at the breadth, depth and quality of the writing talent
that we have received -
Now, the ridiculously difficult but exciting task of selecting works to be featured in the first edition begins in earnest and the publication, all being well, will appear in the first week or two of July. (All contributing authors will receive a copy and payment)
Having said all that, we are now planning the next edition so please keep the submissions coming in.
It is our unequivocal intention to maintain READ FICTION as a dynamic and ever changing (please forgive the tautology) vehicle for new and /or previously unpublished creative writers.
We look forward to seeing so much more in the months and years to come and we will
to continue to use this publication to promote the literary skill that exists in
abundance out there and get it to the people that really matter -
Here, at READ FICTION, we have asked ourselves the question: Is there another literary giant sitting out there?
And the answer? -
So, write. Please.
