Coffee Grinder logo with caption: The Grinder, brewing your submissions into something useful

brief + incorrect - Poetry (Fiction) (Nonfiction)



Description
This is a small online magazine for short work that doesn’t behave.

(...)

We’re interested in writing that is precise but unstable, controlled but slightly off. We’re interested in work that creates its own logic and follows it all the way through.

(...)

What we’re looking for:

Work that distorts slightly

Compression with intent

Strange logic that feels internally consistent

Emotional or conceptual dissonance

True work shaped by subjectivity
