Literally Literary Magazine We list other projects with similar titles. Please check that you report any submissions under the correct listing. About At Literally we embrace the complexity, intelligence, and creativity of women around the world. Inspired by Anita Loos’ Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, we strive to abolish the idea that beauty and brains are mutually exclusive. Our pages consist of thought-provoking literature, essays, and other art forms for women contrasted with the aesthetics of the feminine magazines we know and love, showing that the two can and do co-exist. By blending pop culture with literature, we create a space for all aspects of femininity to be explored. We believe that intelligence is stunning, literature can be accessible, and women’s voices deserve to be heard. Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions. (Note: About 8% of magazines always charge fees.) The fee is USD $3 (average for magazines that charge). Limited Demographic: Submissions are restricted to women.
