Cicada Magazine: Monsters
Call for
Submissions: Monsters
Due: December 1, 2017
Cicada
YA/teen lit magazine seeks fiction, poetry, comics, and essays on the theme of
Monsters. How do we view monsters? Grotesque. Other. Twisted. Hungry. We check
under our beds for them; we fear their presence at the edges of all our
familiar spaces; we drive them out with torches and pitchforks wherever we find
them. Cicada wants to see works that cast monsters in a new light. Show us
monsters living their best lives. Show us monsters in love. Show us monsters
that refuse to apologize for being monsters. Show us monsters embracing their
own monstrousness and surviving, no matter what.
