Phobos Magazine - Poetry
(Fiction)
Description
Founded in Philadelphia in 2012, Phobos is a weird fiction magazine inspired by the old pulps. We call ourselves "weird" as tribute but we publish all sorts of speculative fiction; if it's on-theme, exciting, tightly written and has elements of the fantastic, we're interested. We publish an issue every few years in both print and ebook/kindle, and each one is organized around a theme.
