6 Lit mags you gotta submit to this week (& why) The Cincinnati Review - One of the most prestigious traditional print mags out there, they also have a robust digital presence. Apogee Journal - A lit mag that's been slowly but surely establishing their footprint within the indie lit space. Luna Station Quarterly - Dedicated to sharing the "vast talents of female speculative fiction writers," this lit mag is one of the most vibrant and visually appealing spec mags I know. Translunar Travelers Lounge - A newer lit mag, they feature stories that "explore the fun side" of fantasy and sci fi. The Deadlands - I've enjoyed working with this mag in the past. They pay professional rates and have several reading periods throughout the year. The Saturday Evening Post - They've been around since 1821, and they focus on fiction and nonfiction (as well as cartoons) "on the ever-evolving American scene." CHILL SUBS® X ONLY POEMS

What to do on a random Friday night? Why, submit your work to lit mags of course!

Find them here: subclub.substack.com/p/6-lit-mags...

To celebrate 10 years of awesomeness, we want to answer your questions about the submission process, editorial decision-making, and all things lit mag.
