@trishhopkinson @dishsoapquart @chillsubs Sadly we weren’t mentioned here. Our response time is less than a week. No fees. Paying market. And subs reopen April 1, 2026. This is our 10th Anniversary!

This curated list includes over 100 literary magazines and journals that respond quickly, have no fees, and some paying. Many have been featured on my website. Plus, a link to an automatically updated fast response list curated by our friends @chillsubs. buff.ly/3Ab4QrC #poetrycommunity #WritingCommunity #litmags

I hate the way writers have to be influencers now. It’s the single worst thing that has happened to books. Good writers have to waste valuable time making content when they should be writing, bad writers get book deals because they have a lot of followers

AI writing has so many tells. Once you see it, it's fairly easy to identify (and exhausting to see everywhere). If you don't know how to spot it, please read: litmagnews.substack.com/p/q-what-is-ai…

Due to setbacks during Chemo treatment for Grace’s son, publication of the upcoming issue is being pushed to April 1, 2026. (Though a bit of a delay, it seemed fitting for the 10th Anniversary Issue, considering the inaugural issue was on April 1, 2016, ten years ago exactly.)
