AC | DC: A Journal for the Bent: Fiction, Poetry, Creative Nonfiction, Visual Art Gold Star Program Gold Star Free Tip Jar Option

AC|DC is currently accepting submissions of Fiction, Creative Nonfiction, Poetry, and Art from LGBTQIA+ writers and artists

Take a look at what’s on the site to decide if your work might be a good fit. We have a preference for the dark and raw but are open to all.

Regular Submissions: We aim to respond within 30 days, but it can take as long as 60 days.

Tip Jar Submissions: For a tip of $5.00, you can skip the line and receive a response within 3 days. Please note in the cover letter section of your submission : "Tip Jar"

If you'd like to show your support with an amount less than $5.00, you won't skip the line, but you will earn a special place in AC|DC's heart.

Tips do not sway our decision.
