     PageBoy Magazine is currently gathering material for our eleventh (!) issue. If you have something that you'd like to share, please send it along and we will consider it for publication. There is no theme for our upcoming issue. Poetry, prose, fiction, nonfiction, reviews, seventeens, etc. We are open to any form, as we believe any form works if the writer makes it work.

     Why publish with PageBoy Magazine? We invite you to use this form - the hard copy literary magazine (so 1990's!) - to (1) experiment with your work (if you are an established writer), (2) to add to the ongoing literary conversation, (3) to gain a prestigious publishing credit!, (4) to be invited (if accepted) to read at our release party this coming winter/spring, (5) to become famous, (6) to get your mind off the current political situation (if only for an instant!), and (7) for the money! (there isn't any, of course, but we will send you a contributor copy, and do our best to champion you currently and with any future projects you have on our enormously successful social media platforms. 

     General submission information can be found here: submissions guidelines. All submissions should be sent to pageboymagazine@hotmail.com. There is never a submission fee. 

I Remember

Joe Brainard remembering something.

     I remember the first time I saw Joe Brainard's book I Remember. I was in Boulder Colorado watching a busker contort himself into a tiny plexiglass box. Someone was reading I Remember on a bench nearby.
     Later I saw it in the bookstore on Pearl St., and I remember I was very excited by the form, and I read nearly half the book right then and there, but then I felt nauseous and had to leave. I remember being very confused when someone asked me, years later, if I "liked it."
