Wayward Literature
Wayward: Shortening of awayward “turned away”
1.) Following one’s own capricious, wanton, or deprived inclinations.
2.) Following no clear principle.
3.) Opposite to what is directed or expected.
Welcome to Wayward Literature, a magazine and website where we welcome all forms and styles of writing.
Our Philosophy
It’s our belief that, much like the definition of “wayward,” literature does not follow one set rule or path. It doesn’t always travel in one direction. Wayward Literature magazine means to symbolize the journey that inevitably comes with the writing process. We aim to cover what pushes the boundaries of writing and to showcase works that go beyond just the written word.
We founded this magazine and website in pursuit of various forms of literature. Through the power of a community, we aim to bring forward and connect people through different written and art forms. No matter what genre, form, or style you’re submitting, we want it.
