I picked up the current issue of Poets & Writers yesterday, drawn in by the cover article “22 Lit Mags That Do More For Your Work.” There’s a really interesting section on lit magazines that are specialized i.e. “a letterpress magazine printed with soy ink on recycled paper using wind power”, lit magazines for women, established writers, new writers, lit magazines that fuel social change or environmental issues. With the large amount of lit magazines out there I think Poets & Writers did a fantastic job in highlighting these 22 markets. And well worth the $5.95- the price of the magazine.
Here’s just a few of the 22 that were new to me journals.
