The Literary e-clectic is a quarterly magazine that every issue is the same, only different. Each quarter has a different theme that the stories adhere to. At the Literary e-clectic, we don’t care if the stories are fiction or non-fiction or what type of genre they may fall into. What we care about is having good stories.
