Hi. We're a magazine that isn't a magazine.
Welcome to the homepage that goes along with your monthly print installment of Pocket Lit.
No binding, no pretense,
just 20 cards in an envelope.
Traditional magazines are finished.
Too many frills, too much heft, too little quality. So, we've pared down the magazine to what is important: stories and poems and drawings and things that make you feel, I don't know...
...like Val Kilmer in that movie where he's blind, but then gets an operation to cure his blindness, and he rediscovers what life can be...
except with more flash fiction and poetry
and without the melodrama...
and without Val Kilmer
(seriously, he's not invited).
We publish only the best [fiction, poetry, memoir, art, illustration, comics, that awesome thing you do that doesn't have a real name yet] that can fit in black and white on a 4x6 card.
Kindling is
versatile, portable, interchangeable,
and we have a new issue every other month.
In short, we are a print magazine for the digital age. ready to get connected? current issue  |  |
