Here at peculiar, we are so excited by the submissions and support we’ve seen for the journal, and we are so excited for all the amazing queer writers we have published and will be publishing soon.

Yesterday closed our submission period for issue 9, so as we move into 2020, we’ll be taking issues 8 and 9 to print, and we are so excited for you to read them.

​Another goal for 2020 is getting more organized on our end of the journal. As a volunteer staff, we all stay very busy with full-time jobs and personal lives, and because of this, we want to take a little down time from editing and producing new issues just to get the business end in tip-top shape. We’ve wanted to officially become a nonprofit for awhile now, so hopefully we’ll have things in order when we open for submissions again!

​So for this organization to happen, submissions will be opening back up January 1, 2021. Until then, we’ll still be running the journal, updating our blog, and working on peculiar in case you have any questions. Keep creating and get ready to send us all your wonderful work in 2021. Let us know if you have any questions at any time.

​Love and support to you all,
peculiar staff
