Queer Lit Magazine Submissions Guidelines
Each issue will focus on specific genre. We are looking for pieces that fit well within, as well as those that attempt to break the mold. Classic genre where the characters are queer? Yep! Cross-genre? Sure! Taking typically heteronormative aspects of the genre and subverting their tropes? Absolutely.
We aim to be a sanctuary for queer folks. Anyone who self-identifies as falling under the vast QUILTBAG spectrum is welcome to submit their work, whether it features queer characters or not.
If you are an allocishet person who writes with queer characters: Thanks for writing about us! We're sure your work will find a lovely home elsewhere.
We especially want to publish works by BIPOC, though folks of all ethnic and racial identities are welcome to submit.
