A glyph is any kind of purposeful mark.
We believe that every story, whether it is fantasy, literary fiction, or poems on nature, can leave a purposeful mark. You only need to find the right reader.
It’s here!

What is Glyph?
Glyph. is both a literary magazine and hub, welcoming people of all backgrounds who enjoy writing and reading compelling fiction.
Great storytelling doesn’t necessarily have to contain beautiful prose, complex characters, or evocative imagery. Great storytelling means taking the reader on a journey through their emotions—whether that’s rage, joy, sadness, or even perplexity.
As a new UK literary magazine, we’re not award-winning or a highly esteemed publication. We’re not going to be the first title that comes to mind when someone mentions literary magazines. But we aspire to offer a sense of community for the casual writer, someone who finds great joy in storytelling but doesn’t consider themselves a real writer (yet). Through our unputdownable fiction, we want to be the place where every reader will find at least one piece that speaks to them.
“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
