This is a volunteer position  and is ideal for an emerging writer looking to work with a friendly editor and get exposed to fantastic independent writing and publishing from all over the world. For more info please email [email protected].

Call for Submissions: Totally Radical Muslims Zine 

The Oakland, CA-based Totally Radical Muslims Zine exists to tackle Islamophobia, homophobia, imperialism and more. For their 3rd issue, they are publishing work on the theme of Queer Muslim Love Stories. In their (wonderfully eloquent) words: “Tell us about the ways you’ve opened and closed your heart. Count the times you’ve heard it break. Describe the love you’ve asked for, prayed for, waited for, cherished, embraced, feared, denied, chased, flirted with or fled. Name the feelings that visit you by night. Send us your love letters. Talk dirty to us.”

You heard them. Submit! Deadline is April 1, 2014. More info at their website.
