Weird but does anybody else get a strange sense of grief when they see a zine/mag close or go defunct? Like it could be my autistic mind speaking but fsr it feels like a death to me, even if it's not literally one. Every time I see one I remember its name and carry it with me as I submit

5 months later and the Mockingbird somehow gave me a worse experience than this. Honestly hilarious in hindsight
I check on that college's journal every now and then, 3 years later. It is still dead! And quite frankly, I don't care. The Mockingbird is much better than it will ever be. The only thing I regret is not giving that story another chance to be published. (8/9)

i need to learn to casual post more so. the scariest part about learning how to submit is that i can't read vibes no matter how much i read from a mag. only time i know if my work fits for a mag or not is when i get emailed "nuh uh" and thats kind of spooky for me. is this normal or a skill issue

Fun fact: my very first submission to a lit mag was for one that literally like crumbled before my very eyes.

Okay, so basically it was my freshman year of college. I was one of only 11 English majors at my old university. The seniors would run the college's lit mag. (1/?)

Hmmm yeah I should probably post this too. If you happen to be in the ETSU area, come to the Speaking Queerly event there on Wednesday, February 12th! I'm a featured speaker there :) honestly am so nervous about it, I never thought I'd be a featured speaker for anything
