About

Defunkt Magazine is Houston-based nonprofit literary journal and press dedicated to publishing authentic, influential works from emerging and established writers, artists, and creatives. We are a magazine and press that showcases compelling, accessible, and culturally relevant work–anything the mainstream is ignoring, we'll want it. We seek to offer an authentic reflection of the contemporary, and most importantly, to uplift marginalized voices in a fascinating and brutally honest way. Bring us your pain, your strength, your passion.
