Not Ghosts, But Spirits Anthology Series

A project of Querencia Press (see other related projects).

About

Querencia Press is currently working on an ongoing project of anthologies surrounding women’s, queer, trans, & Enby issues. Profits from each anthology will be donated to a different organization working to improve rights for women and queer people. These anthologies are open to any trans, enby, woman identifying, queer person, or ally. We are looking for work across all genres, including visual art, about any and all issues that come with being a woman, queer, trans, or Non-Binary person. TERF content will not be tolerated under any circumstances.

Limited Demographic: Submissions are restricted to people identifying as trans, enby, woman, queer, or ally.
Submission Caps: They may close to submissions early if they reach their quota.
