Welcome to Bullshit, a literary magazine & indie press based in Philly, PA.

Bullshit Lit publishes poetry, prose, fiction, art, and stuff that doesn't fit into any of those categories.​

Inspired by a stack of silly little poems, Bullshit Lit is the antithesis to those flowery submissions calls for, like, "the deepest echo in your heartcanyon." It doesn’t take itself that seriously.​

New online features 4 (or more) times a week; new books (almost) every month.
