Theme 03: "Vice"
Though The Argyle is on indefinite hiatus, we hope to release accepted submissions for Theme 03, ‘Vice,’ sometime this Fall 2024. Visit our website and/or our social media for any updates.
Note from the EIC
It is with a heavy heart that I must announce that The Argyle must go on an indefinite hiatus. As stated in our previous “Note from the EIC,” a tornado completely destroyed my house—and all the belongings within—which left my six dogs and me unhoused for a period of time. While things have certainly improved since, I find that financial recovery is slow in coming and, unfortunately, requires all my effort and time to address. Given this fact, I find myself needing to work more than ever before to stabilize my financial situation; therefore, The Argyle currently cannot get the attention it deserves. I had hoped that things would have gelled by September, but they have not. While the operation of The Argyle will cease—for now—we are not down and out. It is my hope that The Argyle will be up-and-running again in Spring 2025; however, don’t be surprised if things look a bit “different.” Until then, The Argyle (Issues 1 thru 3) will continue to remain accessible online for the time being.
A HUGE thanks goes out to all of our contributors and all those that submitted to us since Issue #1. The Argyle is truly nothing without you and your amazing talent. We couldn’t have had the three amazing issues we have had otherwise.
We will do out best to release selections for Themes #2 (The Ultimate B-52s Playlist) and #3 (Vice) this Fall 2024 as opportunity allows.
The plan is to stay active on our social media accounts, while we take our break, so you don’t forget us. Hopefully, we will see you again Spring 2025. Please keep your fingers crossed along with us.
Sincerely,
David Estringel

Blood+Honey Press
Groovy chaps by groovy writers for groovy people.
Blood+Honey Press is a micro-press and the publishing arm of The Argyle Literary Magazine. We aim to publish original and genre-defining chapbooks of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction from contemporary authors. Much like The Argyle, we don’t prescribe to any particular idea of genre but celebrate the many layers that exist therein.
While Blood+Honey Press will work in tandem with The Argyle to publish content from its selected authors, it is also an independent micro-press that will eventually solicit and accept manuscript submissions directly from potential contributors.
Due to recent tornado drama, things are a bit delayed , but we’ll hit the ground running in Spring 2025 with our first offering from International Beat Poet Laureate, Michael D. Amitin.
Coming Soon!
Coming Soon!
Shadow Morphine Dress by Michael D. Amitin
After a bit of a delay, Blood+Honey Press, the publishing arm of The Argyle Literary Magazine, will be publishing its first micro-chap Shadow Morphine Dress by International Beat Poet Laureate, Michael D. Amitin.
Shadow Morphine Dress was The Argyle’s initial virtual micro-chap and, since the beginning, was destined to end up in print. It will be Blood+Honey Press’ first offering and was actually the glue that cemented the idea for the press.
Publication is set for Spring 2025 with copies available for purchase via The Argyle’s website.
Visit The Argyle and watch our social media feeds for more information on Shadow Morphine Dress and other upcoming titles as they become available.
