Mythaxis Magazine About Established in 2008 by Gil Williamson, Mythaxis began as a self-coded webzine with an unpredictable release schedule and a close-nit group of regular contributors. Edited by Andrew Leon Hudson since 2020, the magazine is now a clockwork-quarterly publication and welcomes new writers from around the world and shares their work in audio too! But some things never change: Mythaxis has always been focused on the fiction, with as little distraction as possible - no ads, no clutter, just quality stories to transport you somewhere else.
