THE NEXT WAVE Pif With writers-only classifieds and regular fiction and poetry contests, Pif targets hungry scribes eager for the chance to submit original work. But anyone who might appreciate how an obscure Lou Reed song could inspire a several-thousand-word essay is likely to enjoy spending time here. The site devotes a section to underground zines that just might give established mags a run for their money someday.

The new literary Pilot-Search.com is a boon to all of us who believe in literature and art on the Web. It's a wonderfully focused version of the Web for literary folk of all kinds, from writers and readers, scholars, to fellow literary travelers. Every lit site ought to paste that free Pilot-Search literary search engine function tight onto its home page. I know I will.
-Frederick Barthelme, Editor of The Mississippi Review

Pif is a mighty fine site! Thank heavens for Pilot-Search, or I'd still be stuck in a Java download wondering why I even bothered trying to find a particular literary site. Pilot-Search gets me where I need to go cleanly, with a zippy interface, and fast.

Pilot-Search cuts through the noise of the net... Pif focuses on new and emerging writers - sometimes a little raw, sometimes a little weird.

Fast becoming the litmus test for new authors on the Net

It's not just another poetry and fiction e-zine. It's a full-blown, out-and-out magazine with Music and Book Reviews, Art and Photography exhibitions... They've come a long way since the early days.
-Jaimes Alsop, The Alsop Review

It's one thing to run an impressive magazine on the Internet... but a literary search engine - wow!
