Room
Magazine publishes writing by marginalized genders, including women, both
cisgender and transgender, transgender men, Two-Spirit
and nonbinary people; they are accepting submissions of fiction,
creative non-fiction, poetry, and art for their Audacity-themed issue. “We want
you to show us what “Audacity” means to you. Maybe it stirs up some negative
emotions, like the way a politician has the audacity to inflict harm, or a man
has the audacity to explain kickboxing to the woman about to teach the class.
But the writing we’re most interested in explores transformative audaciousness:
the unapologetic embracing of the self, warts and all. … However you interpret
our theme, the one aspect these submissions should have in common is bravery.
This shouldn’t be easy, or comfortable; change never is.”
Length: Up to 3,500 words
Pay: CAD50/page up to CAD200

Deadline: January 31st, 2022
