Joyland: A hub for short fiction is a digital platform and print literary journal now known as Joyland Magazine. It was created by novelist Emily Schultz and filmmaker Brian Joseph Davis. Though based in New York, Joyland Magazine's structure is uniquely distributed across North American cities and regions with an editorial network. Notable contributors have included Jonathan Lethem, Lydia Millet, and Chris Kraus. It was an early publisher to authors Amelia Gray, Roxane Gay, Rachel Khong, Zinzi Clemmons, and Otessa Moshfegh.
In 2016 Joyland Magazine was merged with Schultz and Davis's Heroic Collective Media, and new publishers, Kyle Lucia Wu and Lisa Locascio, were hired to oversee editorial and development. Since then Joyland Magazine has founded the "Bad Women" panel series for female writers and filmmakers, and its stories and authors have been profiled by Huffington Post and Lenny Letter.Joyland Magazine has also launched an annual fiction prize called the Open Border Fiction Prize. Amelia Gray judged the prize in 2017 and Rachel Khong judged the prize in 2018.
