All submissions should be emailed to redqueenlitmag@gmail.com. The subject line should read as follows: "Genre/ Last Name, First Name." We accept simultaneous submissions, but we do not accept previously published work unless we've solicited work from you and explicitly stated otherwise. As such, if your piece is accepted elsewhere, please let us know immediately.
We reserve First North American Serial Rights for any submission; upon publication, all rights revert back to the author. If your work later appears in another publication, please note that it was originally published in Red Queen Literary Magazine.
Upon acceptance, we reserve the right to make minor edits such as correcting spelling or grammar. All authors whose work has been accepted will get a chance to take a look at the issue before publication in case they themselves want to make any minor edits or if they have any concerns regarding our changes.
We reserve the right to not respond to submissions that express messages of hate and intolerance, as well as submissions that blatantly ignore the guidelines below.
Please refer to our Twitter account for up to date deadlines.
