Despite good pre-order sales, and very healthy website visits, we are still quite new in this space.

If you wish to support great literature, even just a follow and interaction goes a long way.

Thank you, and remember: Be Unpublishable

However, the environment it has festered in the creative community is particularly damaging to the medium.

Here, writers actively insult, block, and doxx each other for the crime of disagreeing with an opinion, or providing criticism.

It's not uncommon to see things like this:

The more outrageous, the less nuanced, the more polemic your tweet, the more engagement you will have.

But now engagement pays--and it pays quite well.

In our opinion piece "The Death of Literature," we expand on this very issue: shorturl.at/L6Aru

The more outrageous, the less nuanced, the more polemic your tweet, the more engagement you will have. Yet, now engagement pays, and it pays quite well.

We have decided to permanently stop posting on X

We have considered this after seeing that the algorithm actively promoted, and incentivized, the most despicable takes for the sakes of engagement

However the breaking point was this tweet from the official government account of Homeland Security

Submissions are open!

FBM specializes in the unpublishable--works don't fit traditional story beats, or structure.

If this is your story, go to faunbymoonlight.com.

We are a paying market, ALWAYS read your submission, and ALWAYS give you detailed feedback

"Gen Z is buying more books, reading more, writing more, and yet we still get establishment and self-publishing authors declaring the death of literature? How could that be?"

The old industry adage that “money should flow to the writer” certainly applies to large publishers who have the means to handle this volume. But in the age of AI, the better model seems to be a sharing of value between the writer and the magazine”
