hi everyone, long time no see! coming back to tumblr with a pitch that one friend rated 12/10, another 15/10, and no one less than a 10 (that i will be mentioning for the purposes of this post).
so basically me and my girlfriend are in our final year as university undergrads, and are fighting for our lives for stuff to put on our cvs / master applications that falls in line with our degree programs and interests (english literature for both). as much as i'd like it to, 'spending well over 80 hours mapping out dnd sessions' for some reason doesn't tend to appeal to employers or admissions offices.
this is where VULTURE CULTURE comes in.
we've laid out the principal tenets on the 'about' page, but a tldr for whoever is interested:
At Vulture Culture, we aim to take the works of people they may not necessarily feel the best about, works that may not otherwise see the light of day, and give them a ‘home.’ We believe that there’s no such thing as a story not worth telling. By not charging submission fees (be so for real) and keeping our guidelines few, we also hope to erode some of the traditional barriers in publishing, and create a more accessible space for all.
in other words, GIVE US YOUR LEFTOVERS.
we are a literary magazine that will accept anything that exists in the mid range of what you love and hate. have you ever wanted to be published but where do you even start? here. are you unsure what to do with that old work that's been sitting in your drafts forever (it's good enough to post, but not good enough to be picked up by anyone of significance)? hi.
our first issue theme is NEW BODIES, and we are just as curious as you to find out what that means. deadline is march 1st, 2024.
come help us be employable or whatever. also in return you get to clear up some draft space and see your name in print. together, love wins 🏆

HELLO WRITERS AND POETS OF TUMBLR! DO YOU WANT TO GET PUBLISHED IN A LITERARY JOURNAL?
For years I've been submitting to literary journals and gotten fed up with the process, so I've decided to start my own! It's called Goosewax! There is NO submission fee and NO long waiting period! Already published your work to Tumblr, Wattpad, Substack, etc? Not a problem. I have no issues with accepting previously published work!
Obviously this journal is brand new, so I can't claim any kind of prestige, but it is an official literary journal and your work would be considered published! This means that in all your cover letters from now on, you could list publication in a journal. You'd also be helping an independent journal get its feet off the ground.
There are very few rules to submit, but be sure to read them on the Submissions page linked below. Basically I accept short stories, creative nonfiction, and poetry all with a maximum of 5k words (no fanfiction please, only works that don't require knowledge of particular media). Since I don't have a backlog to get through right now, turnaround time will be lightning fast and if you choose to provide an email (optional) you'll hear back about your submission in a day or two. Here's the submission page:
You can also email me at [email protected] with your submission attached, if you prefer. If you have trouble with either of these, feel free to DM me on Tumblr. You can also remain entirely anonymous if you'd like, or be published under a username. It's up to you! If you don't wish to submit, reblogs are GREATLY appreciated as I try to get this thing going. I am super excited about this project and I can't wait to read your submissions!

Five Reasons We Love Andrew Scott’s Hamlet
Hey all—I know we’ve been posting a lot of web weaving lately (we love a good web weave—especially about grief, loss, and torturous love—it’s kinda what we are all about on this blog—) but we have decided to shake it up and post about the especially lovely adaptation of Hamlet we watched just before Christmas—nearly four hours long but 100% worth it.
REASON NUMBER ONE:
Tumblr media
He does insane, sassy, and irritated so damn well. This mockery of Polonious is classic—just because Hamlet has lost his marbles doesn’t mean is stupid—he knows what’s up and he know’s he is being watched every moment of his frenzied dive into the abyss.
REASON NUMBER TWO:
Tumblr media
He wears the veil of doubt with sincerity and desperation—to be so resistant to do what the Ghost has said—to still be giving his Uncle even an ounce of leeway, shows that in Hamlet’s heart there is still some tenderness yet and Andrew Scott shows that desperate clinging to tenderness and compromise as a beautiful, yet painful thing—it makes Hamlet’s fatal flaw all the more apparent.
REASON NUMBER THREE
Tumblr media
His performance of the most famous speech in Hamlet is so quietly despairing and so subtlety laced with sorrow’s edge. Most (at least in my experience) actors at this point dive full on into loud and angry and crashing; but Scott decides to embrace the soulful and soft pondering of the depression and grief within Hamlet—I love the different take!
REASON NUMBER FOUR
Tumblr media
He embraces the absurdity with wonderful restraint. Scott’s decision to focus the underlying tension within Hamlet’s understanding that the situation is absurd—from the funeral to the wedding to the call to vengeance—he is acutely aware that the situation is ridiculous and that all will be unsatisfactorily resolved and yet he is compelled to try to find a resolution that will solve the mounting problems in Denmark. Scott plays it fantastically—humor at ever turn and yet such sorrow and awareness that much is doomed.
REASON NUMBER FIVE:
Tumblr media
In the graveyard scene his genuine surprise, grief, and tenderness towards Yorrick only makes the following scene with Ophelia much more heartbreaking—it seems, at some point at his time he had forgotten the mortality of those outside himself, suprising as it is in the fallout of his father’s death—and the gentle reminder to be follow by the dagger of sharp and large reminder through Ophelia is played through so very very well.
In conclusion—please watch Hamlet with Andrew Scott—you won’t regret it. I’ll even link it down below.

As might already know - I moved into my dream flat back in April and this is how my desk and writing space are currently looking. I have a map of independent bookshops in London, an artist print and the two posters I am selling on the shop for my magazine - Spring Journal up on my wall. I just spent the evening wrapping up the first batch of orders ready to post them tomorrow. I am so grateful and so thrilled to be able to do this :’)
