About

Bastards and Whores: It's a succinct way of expressing our philosophy and confusing it simultaneously. We're bastards to other literary venues (if we could punch them we would) and whores because we'd sell-out for anything. We are not porn (although we endorse porn and porn addiction and porn addiction counseling). It's immature, vulgar, and maybe sexist, and we don't know which of those applies to us yet.
