From 1996 to 2022, Nerve Cowboy
was a biannual journal of poetry, short fiction, art, and music. As we turn to our next chapter, our goal continues to be to feature work sensitive enough to make the hardest hard-ass cry, funny enough to make the most hopeless brooder laugh, and disturbing enough to make us all glad we're not the author of the piece. Nerve Cowboy #50 is our final proper periodical issue. You can order it, and more (including Best of Nerve Cowboy anthologies to be published in 2023-24, chapbooks, back issues) securely in our online store.
