Rodwell is Seeking Fiction, Poetry, Nonfiction, & Visual Art by Young Artists
Author: Edit Team
September 20, 2020
Rodwell Magazine is open for both literary and genre short fiction, flash fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, and visual art by queer-identifying writers and artists no younger than 15 and no older than 30. We are particularly interested in work by novice writers. We publish new work bi-monthly.

Rodwell seeks to be a space in which young queer writers do not have to qualify their voices to appeal to a heteronormative audience. We reject cis-heterosexual default. Time and again heteronormative society reduces young queers to objects of desire, violence, and scapegoating. At Rodwell Magazine, like the Oscar Wilde Memorial Bookshop of our namesake, young queers are given the authority to construct their own identities and find community. Bring to our pages your unabashedly queer voices and speak into the darkness!
