    TOMORROW MAGAZINE, published since 1982, takes its name
    from editor Tim W. Brown's mission to showcase tomorrow's writing today.
    Tomorrow always is seeking work for possible publication. In the past we
    have published poetry, short fiction, essays, dramatic scripts, interviews and
    B/W art. We prefer to look at about five poems at a time; we are not
    considering fiction at present due to over-commitments in this area. Although
    we will consider any style of writing, work that we publish tends to be more
    underground than academic in character. Contributors include Antler, Gina
    Bergamino, Hugh Fox, Richard Kostelanetz, M.L. Liebler, Lyn Lifshin, Kay
    Murphy, Charles Rammelkamp, Cheryl Townsend and Paul Weinman. Contact
