Particle is a literary and arts magazine based in the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus. Established in 2013, Particle publishes bi-annually in digital media. We publish works of fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, artworks and photography. We aim to provide a platform for the University of Nottingham’s literary community and to promote the work of both emerging and established writers and artists within Southeast Asia. We are committed to providing space and amplifying the voices of those whose communities and/or identities are marginalized or underrepresented, without fear. The name Particle plays on multiple meanings: (1) In grammar: words that fall outside the traditional eight parts of speech. It relies on the word it is paired with to have meaning (e.g. to). (2) A minute portion or fragment of something. (3) One of the smallest pieces of matter. (4) A play on the word 'article'. We accept works in a diverse spectrum of genres, including blended genre and experimentation. Ultimately, we seek works that are well crafted and spark a fresh reaction in us.
