ABOUT STANCHION

Launched amid the tumultuous summer of '20, Stanchion is a quarterly zine, printed on thick, elegant uncoated A5 paper and featuring short stories, flash fiction, poetry, one-act plays, evocative thoughts, drawings, and black & white photography from some of the most talented artists working today.

​

Stanchion is an inclusive space, a paying publication, and a safe home for diverse voices from across the globe.

​

In late 2022, Stanchion Books was born. The small press arm of this operation publishes poetry, short story, and novella chapbooks that are each available to be ordered from wherever you buy books, as well as through the Stanchion Shop on this site.

​

Stanchion submits to all major independent literary awards, and in 2023 placed two short works in the Best Microfiction Anthology.
