Publishing Opportunity for Queer Youth!

Written by

A black and white image that looks like a hand-drawn comic with a central figure yelling in the middle. The figure has short hair and is wearing a leather jacket. Text is enveloped in magazine cut-out style boxes and reads: Let's Say Gay. A literary magazine for queer youth. Submissions open from April 1-July 1.

Deadline: July 1, 2026

Let’s Say Gay is a safe place for queer identifying teens to share their talents and tell their stories. A place where we all can, and will, say gay. Or maybe even shout it.

We are proud to announce our fourth volume and welcome artists between the ages of 13 and 18 to submit their visual art, poetry, short stories, flash fiction, or creative nonfiction for free via e-mail at lsglitjournal@gmail.com.
