What a wild ride its been!
Started in 2019, After Dinner Conversation has grown rapidly. First, as a digital only literary magazine. Then as a print+digital literary magazine. Followed by themed books and best of books. Then into syndication in other magazines. And now, as a weekly Substack republishing stories from our magazine! Not to mention the awards!

Our Substack recently hit a huge milestone, 150,000 subscribers! As a way to say thank you, we are giving away a free copy of our March, 2025 magazine for download.
No catch, no trick. Just a free digital magazine for your reading pleasure. Of course, our hope is you will enjoy the magazine and consider becoming a paid digital or print subscriber, or even a paid Substack subscriber… because, you know, great art deserves your support.
Regardless, thank you for reading and supporting After Dinner Conversation. And here’s to the long march to 200,000 subscribers!
