It's amazing how a few weeks away from a poem makes you see the cracks in it. Time is the best editor. Patience is better than any craft book.

🔥 The 2026 FISH List is out! Audi Locus jumped nearly 100 points from last year. That’s not luck; that's doing the work. For the uninitiated: the FISH List ranks thousands of indie lit-mags, weighing submission practices, longevity, and editorial rigor to point you toward venues worth your words.

First time I actually licked an envelope in quite some time. Sending off our very first batch of Pushcart Prize nominations! It’s been a solid first year of publishing. Proud of the work we’ve put out and the writers who trusted us with it. Here’s to the next one.

You can submit up to 5 mags! And what's really cool, regardless of "winning," is that the tags y'all pick will help label the lit mags in Chillsubs for easier navigation and visibility!

here is the shorter of yesterday's 2 poems from Kara Knickerbocker

In our "Witness" issue, Tess Ezzy turns the eye inward and asks the hard questions: "what is the Greek word / for grief you didn’t earn". Read "ΚΡΑΤΑ ΤΟ ΕΣΥ (you hold this)", one of our Pushcart noms, here: www.audilocus.com/volume1-issu... #Poetry #IndieLit #Publication #LitMag

Proud to feature this piece by Barnaby Blue in the "Witness" issue! 👁️💘 www.audilocus.com/volume1-issue2 #indiejournal #litjournal #art

We'd love to be one of your five! 😍

It's time to vote for Best Lit Mag in the ChillSubs Community Favorites Awards! If our work has ever hit you sideways, cracked something open, or lit a little fuse, take a moment and nominate us. 🗳️ www.chillsubs.com/best-lit-mag... Type Audi Locus, choose a few tags, hit submit.
