OTHERSIDE is a quarterly queer-led literary magazine of speculative fiction, poetry, and art by 2SLGBTQIA+ authors and artists. We are currently open for original fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. We’ll open again to reprints in March. We will publish our first issue in March 2026. You can find our submission guidelines here.
Until then, there’s lots of ways to stay in touch! Joining the free tier of our Patreon will sign you up for a monthly newsletter. If you join a paid tier, you’ll receive a bonus monthly behind-the-scenes newsletter and access to our lively Discord community. You can also follow along on social media platforms like Bluesky and Instagram. From all of us here at OTHERSIDE, thank you for supporting queer speculative fiction!
And if you’d rather just sign up for all the biggest announcements instead of monthly updates, you can join that list here:
