Deadline EXTENDED for The Malahat Review's upcoming theme issue

Queer Perspectives Extended

The Malahat Review invites writers identifying as LGBTQ2S? to submit their work for consideration for an issue celebrating contemporary queer writing in Canada.

To be published in January 2019, “Queer Perspectives” will celebrate the aesthetics, concerns, contributions, and achievements of queer writers living in Canada, recognizing their crucial role in providing a truly complete picture of what it is like to be alive in this country in the past, future, and especially today. Submissions are welcome from all LGBTQ2S? writers. All aspects of diversity and inclusivity welcomed and encouraged.

Guest editors Ali Blythe, Trevor Corkum, and Betsy Warland are interested in considering submissions of exciting contemporary LGBTQ2S? writing by poets, short-story, and creative-nonfiction authors whose work makes vivid and particular their experience of being alive in the world.

“Queer Perspectives” emphasizes inclusivity, diversity, and trust. Rather than the guest editor each reading and selecting for a single genre in isolation, they will work collaboratively, bringing to bear their expertise and insights into queer writing on all submissions irrespective of genre.

The Malahat Review acknowledges that it is a guest on the unceded territory of the Coast and Straits Salish peoples. It acknowledges with respect the lands, waters, people, and ancestors of the Lkwungen-speaking peoples whose connection to and stewardship of these lands and waters remain unbroken to this day.
