In The Moment is an experimental literary magazine. We look for the most unique of poets, artists, and writers, and assemble them in a format that you'll value. An issue will be released every season - starting with Autumn of 2025, then moving forward into Winter 2026, Spring, etc.

Here, there's a core principle - no art is bad. You worked hard enough simply submitting it. There are no submission fees asked of you here, no guidelines or themes unless specified, and no unrealistic standards to look up to. An ever-moving goalpost doesn't do anyone good. In reality, it just lowers the bar.

In The Moment will accept your most controversial and political works (with the exception of those including hate speech and discrimination, of course), violent, fiery, loud. We search for art with a voice.

about us

cradled in your hands, the pen. what will you do with it? scribble complaints about another odd day, pray upon the fall of another that has wronged you? is it worth it? bleeding song into another day, your ink spilled on the page... why is it that you feel so much? why does it feel as if eyes are always on you?
