This new journal publishes work by writers and artists with disabilities. The publication appears online six times a year. Copied and pasted from the website: “We accept submissions of poetry, prose, cross-genre work, reviews/interviews/miscellany, and art for publication on a rolling basis. We publish an online issue six times a year: August 1, October 1, December 1, February 1, April 1, and June 1. There are no deadlines for our issues.
“Poetry: We’re looking for poems on any subject that will change our readers in some way. We especially want intersectional work that upends the dominant rhetoric about disability. Please send us up to 3 poems in a single .doc, .docx, .rtf, or .txt file titled with your name and genre (NAME_GENRE).”
