We publish both fiction and non-fiction as well as a small amount of poetry. Our authors invoke magic and myth - not merely the use of such themes as a story element, but the incarnation of a transcendent reality within the mundane sphere. We call this genre Mythorealism. The implication of Mythorealism is that there is something more, a magical reality behind reality. What that means, exactly, is up to the individual, but the Mythorealist way of life is about bringing this other reality to the forefront, incarnating it in the waking world.
