We’re starting this Sunday morning with some exciting news! Issue 5 is now open for submissions 🥳 —— “Nude” is vulnerability, a shedding of layers, revealing your true self. It’s dark, light, and neutral. It is unforced, stripped bare, yet comfortable. It is natural, and it is free. —— Send us prose, poetry, art, and/or photography that redefines the concept of “nudity” in the physical, mental, and spiritual sense. . . You can email submissions to [email protected] 💛 https://www.instagram.com/p/ChPpiKYOyDi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
