FeaturedWhere to Submit

Where to Submit: March, April, and May 2021

written by Justin Greene March 3, 2021

Before exploring this edition of the Where to Submit List, please consider donating to bail funds, a number of which can be found linked at the top of the June, July, and August 2020 list.

Now we’re three months into 2021. I still don’t know what time is anymore. I’m still tired. We’re all still tired. But, after a brief delay, the newest Where to Submit is finally here!

Our featured artist for the Spring 2021 edition of Where to Submit is Londi Lion! Londi is an aimless play artist who lives in Oakland, CA; her visual play can be found on her Instagram and some of her musical play on Bandcamp.

If you are an editor or publisher and would like your journal, press, or literary organization to be included on the next Where to Submit list, please email Small Press Editor Justin Greene (justingreene@entropymag.org) with a formatted call. For templates of formatted calls, as well as information concerning how the list is put together, we’d love for you to take a look at our “A Few Notes on Where to Submit” post.
