ALOCASIA is an online literary journal of queer creative writing about plants, nature, and horticulture. We publish writing from both established and emerging writers around the world in all genres. We publish traditional work, as well as the weird, erotic, explicit, and anti-colonial. Our writers are celebratory, fierce, wounded, loving, and rebellious. Come visit our garden on the web at alocasia.org. We’d love to read your work! You can find our submission details here: alocasia.org/about-send-work/
New! ALOCASIA is now seeking new unpublished queer-authored creative writing for our upcoming EcoFutures issue, to be published December 2026.
We are looking for poetry and prose that engages with environmental futures, futurisms, and aesthetics toward new ways of surviving and thriving alongside our natural worlds and natural relations. We’re interested in liberatory systems, anti-colonial lenses, and infinite possibilities.
Please send no more than 5 poems or 3 pieces of prose to ALOCASIAmagazine@gmail.com by 11/11/2026.
We are still open for our standard issues, as well, during this time.
