seaside gothic | issue 6 | pelagic grip

Fiction | Poetry | Non fiction

Seaside gothic is a magazine from the edge of the sea where the frontier of civilisation meets the wild of the water.

They live beside the seaside and write amidst the changing of the tide on paper warped by the salt in the air and wet from the spray of the sea.

From this divide they look for the writing that expresses the sense of border living that is shared between the coast and the ocean, where language is pushed to the horizon and words take on new form as they find their home where the sea meets the sky.
