We publish only FLINTA* creatives on the topic of health (open to your interpretation). If that's not you, please don't take space here.

• IMPORTANT NOTE ON FAIR USE: We’ve received several brilliant submissions in the past that we were unable to publish due to quotes from other authors or artists. At this time, we are unable to conduct outreach for obtaining rights for such quotes, so it is up to YOU to get the rights to publish. Thank you for understanding.

We submit for awards and pay our contributors! Each contributor will receive a 1% dividend of sales from the issue in which they are published for as long as sales come in. Payouts occur quarterly via PayPal.

Contributors will also be invited to a pre-launch Zoom session with the editors to network and strategize the promotion of their work for greater visibility. We believe every creator should receive the greatest support for their work, and that FLINTA* health experiences must be read about. We look forward to working with you!
