Hello and Welcome!


Welcome to The Holiday Café, an online literary magazine rooted in Pittsburgh and the hearts of good friends proud to call Pittsburgh home.

So, what is this website all about?  How is it different than all the rest of the websites out there? What is special about The Holiday Café?

Great questions. Perhaps right now - at this moment in time - we don't have all the answers to these questions.  No matter, we do have facts, which will serve to guide us as The Holiday Café embarks on this inaugural journey. These facts, perhaps, are what define us as a website, or more specifically, a group of like-minded friends, passionate about this corner of our Earth we have been blessed to call Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The Holiday Café Values

·         A showcase for Pittsburgh talent - We believe Pittsburgh has world class artistic talent in writing, photography, painting, sculpting, acting, and more and we endeavor to showcase Pittsburgh talent, though we are open to guests from other locales.

·         Passion in the pursuit of perfection - We endeavor to showcase writers and artists, whom demonstrate passion in the pursuit of perfection.

·         Excellence and encouragement - We strive to publish excellent writing, though we aim to encourage new writers to participate who may not be perfect yet.

·         Positive energy - We are positive in our outlook. Our stories, articles, and art are interesting, inspirational, moving, informative, educational, and may aim to entertain, yet they should create positive energy for all of our guests. No bad vibes.

·         Individualism - Opinions are fine, so long as they don't hurt personally or spread hate or other types of ugliness.   
What else is there to state? Sit back, relax and enjoy some of Pittsburgh’s best authors and artists
