"The View From Here provides a platform for accessible, thoughtful and interesting writing about books and writers. As a new writer myself, I shall visit the site - writing is a lonely business, and this magazine is written by and for people who understand about writing."
Paul Torday of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen & The Irresistible Inheritance of Wilberforce

We publish our fiction at The Front View where we showcase the weird, unusual, thought provoking and occasionally bizarre. We classify ourselves as "Bohemian Eclectic" -- yes, we coined the term. Our stories will make you wonder, laugh, cry and generally FEEL something. We expect to elicit a valid emotional response from our readers.

"The View From Here is full of insightful interviews, intelligent reviews, and beautifully-designed pages. I can always find something good to read here."
Michael Kimball of Dear Everybody.

"The best cutting-edge literature magazine around."
Anne Brooke of The Bones of Summer

"I don't know if there's some unwritten rule that says that literary magazines must be all blocky text and dull design, but if there is, clearly the editors and designers at The View From Here didn't get the memo. What a fresh, dynamic, sleek and edgy magazine, both in its wide-ranging content and design."
Gayle Forman of If I Stay

"Attractive, informative, sparkling and useful - TVFH is so many of the things I'm not - sigh - ..."
Iain Banks
