Tips From the Editor
There has been some confusion about what exactly “whimsical” means: it doesn’t necessarily mean satirical or mocking (which is a fair interpretation) but more magical, silly, weird, and fun. We are not against serious writing. In fact, we encourage it. Our magazine has many sections, and the literary section is the one where we like to have a good sit-n-think, so even if your story or poem or essay isn't humorous, we’ll be happy to take a look.
