Introduction

In 2022, we returned with a new model: one annual issue built around a theme. For 2023, the theme is MEDUSA: STONE-COLD BITCHES. Submissions for this issue will be accepted from May 1-August 1. We definitely encourage you to look over the full submission guidelines (and mood board) on our site thoroughly. Note: it's *much more* than retellings of the Medusa myth (though we'll take those, too)!
