Over the past few months, we've noticed a new echelon forming of super artsy indie cool magazines that publish particularly beautiful chaos. Their communities are strong and their editors are savvy as hell. Allow us to introduce you to some of them🖤

We asked you where the cool kids are submitting these days and here’s what you said 👀 Find everything you need to submit here: www.chillsubs.com/lists/cool_k...

Places for you genre rebels to send your writing: www.chillsubs.com/lists/half-m... Curated by the editors of Half Mystic🖤

These mags specifically note in their guidelines that they publish established and emerging writers alike, and placing a piece in one would look reeealll nice on the ol’ (new) literary bio. Submission info: www.chillsubs.com/lists/New_pr...

This week on the @literaryhub.bsky.social podcast, I got to chat first w/ Leila Green Little (the lead plaintiff in Little v. Llano County, the big book-bans case heading towards SCOTUS) and then w/ Ben Davis of @chillsubs.bsky.social about lit mags and community. lithub.com/on-the-lit-h...
