Gargoyle Magazine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gargoyle Magazine is a literary journal based in Washington, D.C. and founded in 1976 by Russell Cox, Richard Peabody, and Paul Pasquarella. By 1977, Peabody was the only original editor left. Peabody continued running the journal until 1990 with several different co-editors. Gargoyle was dedicated to printing work by unknown poets and fiction writers, as well as seeking out the overlooked or neglected. The magazine archive is housed in the Special Collections of Gelman Library at George Washington University. The journal closed down in 1990 but resurfaced in 1997 with Peabody and Lucinda Ebersole as editors and continues to this day. In the summer of 2005 Gargoyle Magazine released its 50th issue. Some of their issues are available in the archives section of their website.
Noted for publishing a wide variety of genres and styles, over the years Gargoyle Magazine has published work by authors as diverse as Ray Bradbury, Kathy Acker, and Nick Cave.
