Woven Webs is an online (un)literary magazine, inspired by “web weaving”, an online practice in which disparate media are presented together, united by a common theme, usually juxtaposing art traditionally seen as high and low brow. Woven Webs seeks publish and highlight works which typically struggle to find a place in literature, particularly speculative fiction and works that experiment with multiple mediums. Woven Webs aims to break down the barrier between genre and literary creative writing, and between “lowly entertainment” and “respected art”.
