Notable Works

The April Reader

The most prolific, publishing 30 total issues on a bi-monthly schedule, and from issue 8 onward offered a cash prize ($10 from each editor, for a total between $20 and $40) to a single author from each release. The magazine was hosted from two websites: https://www.theaprilreader.org/ between issues 11 and 16, and https://theaprilreader.wordpress.com/ from issue 17 on. The magazine had a Twitter presence since the second issue,[1] and a Tumblr pressence since the 22nd.[2]

The Legacy of Totalitarianism in a Tundra

  • Included in the Library of Artistic Print on Demand[3][4], with the collection being moved to the Bavarian State Library in November 2023[5].
  • A series of unfinished recordings of readings from the book was made.[6]

Hypersphere

  • Seemingly included in the Library of the Print Web,[7][8] but does not show in their list of collected works[9][10]; the Museum of Modern Art Library acquired this collection in January 2017.[11]

Lit Quarterly

The only /lit/ magazine to offer payment for every accepted submission, at the sum of $100 each. After the third release an influx of submissions from outside /lit/ began, overwhelming the editors and diluting the spirit of the project as a /lit/ magazine.

A Short Fiction Anthology

Selected from the three FFA releases, presumably by the original editor, with the original releases being removed from print. From the release thread:

Forty stories from those anthologies have been selected, re-edited, and formatted for paperback purchase at the lowest possible no-profit price. It was done because the stories are excellent and worthy of fresh publication.[12]

The table of contents was not posted in the release thread, and the compilation is available only in print.

&amp: the best of issues 001-014

An unofficial compilation selected broadly by consensus on /lit/ following the release of &amp issues 014, organized and edited by a former submitter to the magazine. From the website:

Over fifty pieces of writing were winnowed down from the span of &amp, selected based on their calibre as well as for their representation of the magazine and the board. For their appearance in the best-of, these pieces of writing have been fully edited and re-illustrated, stripped back from their original presentation in &amp to appear here in austere greyscale.[13]
