I have a story all ready to submit, except it doesn't have a FREAKING TITLE

Four decorative golden frames on a light blue wall. In the middle frame, on a rainbow background there's a text that reads Queer Art We Love for World Art Day. Another frame shows Frida Kahlo's painting "Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird". Two other frames show colorful abstract art.

Happy World Art Day! Our rec lists tend to be a bit book-centric, so we thought this’d be a great chance to share some artists and artworks we love. You can check out the list of queer artworks we loved, and their artists, here: duckprintspress.com/2026/04/15/q...

I don't know why it took me until my third major project to hop on the Query Tracker train, but old me could have saved a lot of time and spreadsheet-making 😑

Back Issues - Perseid Prophecies

I just read and absolutely loved "asdfghjklkjhgfdsa" by @erinrcullen.bsky.social, published in @perseidprophecies.bsky.social Issue 7! This story is a clever, thoughtful take on AI and the humans who speak to them. It's free to read, and I highly suggest doing so!

:OOO

I have submitted to Reckoning several times - it's one of my goals to get in! 🌿✊💜I loved seeing y'all's booth at AWP.

An interaction I had a few times at #AWP26:

Lit mag: What do you write?

Me: Speculative fiction!

Lit mag: Oh, we accept that! We just love✒️literary✒️ speculative fiction.

Me: ...Right.😑

I was so excited to stumble upon Iskanchi Press' booth almost as soon as I got to @AWP26! I picked up Barzakh by Moussa Ould Ebnou; I can't wait to read it.

Moksha An e-zine for speculative fiction starring animals

Here at Plott Hound Magazine, we want stories that really dig deep into what it’s like to be an animal and also teach us what it means to be human.

If you write scifi, fantasy, or speculative horror and have a piece that fits our vision, consider sending it our way! We close in 10 days.

Currently on the "agonizing/checking social media phase" once more... unfair that these stages seem to be mandatory.

Oh my goodness... the submission call of my literal dreams 😍🏹🌳💰
