Mobius: The Journal of Social Change

Welcome to Mobiusmagazine.com, the brand new e-version of Mobius: The Journal of Social Change. Established in 1989, Mobius strives to publish challenging fiction and poetry that deals with social change as a primary and secondary theme. We've been asked many times what we mean when we say social change, and we've never really been able to provide a proper answer. Pretty much, to paraphrase Supreme Court Justice Douglas, we know a Mobius story when we see one. Writing that offers some form of social commentary is a step in the right direction, but we don't necessarily look for the overtly political or even the overtly anything. First and foremost, we like good writing, with strong elements of plot and character. We like stories with impact. And we like stories that feature theme. In a word, a Mobius story or poem is about SOMETHING.

At Mobius we believe that writing is power and good writing empowers both the reader and the writer. We feel strongly that in an increasingly corporate literary scene, there needs to be alternatives. Mobius strives to do just that, providing an outlet for writers disenfranchised by a bottom-line marketplace and challenging writing for those who feel that today's literary standard to killing us in a slow, mind numbing fashion.

Through the miracle of the Web, Mobius.Net will allow us to share with you a greater number of stories and poems than in our print counterpart. Enjoy! And feel free to submit your fiction and poetry, either snail or e-mail. Again, we like social commentary, but mainly we like good writing. All submissions will receive a fair and thoughtful critique. Sorry, we offer no payment at this time. Fiction over 5000 words will not be read.
