“HAIGHT ASHBURY LITERARY JOURNAL — The long-term heavyweight, HALJ has been around the block and back, 18 years running. In its tabloid format HALJ is a magazine of the streets, by the streets and for the streets. Not to mention sold on the streets, by sidewalk hawkers. Mostly poetry, some fiction. Many local writers. Sporadic–1-3X/year. $2. 558 Joost Ave., SF 94127.”

MISSION STATEMENT
The Haight Ashbury Literary Journal publishes well-written poetry and fiction. HALJ’s voices are often of people who have been marginalized, oppressed, or abused. HALJ strives to bring literary arts to the general public, to the San Francisco community of writers, to the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, and to people of varying ages, genders, ethnicities, and sexual preferences. The Journal is produced as a tabloid to maintain an accessible price for low-income people.
