Hello, hello! We are OTHERSIDE!
OTHERSIDE is a quarterly queer-led literary magazine of speculative fiction, poetry, and art by 2SLGBTQIA+ authors and artists. We will open for submissions in January 2026 and will publish our first issue in March 2026. (You can find our submission guidelines on our website here.)
And right now our Kickstarter campaign to fund Year 1 is well under way! Actually, it’s been doing extremely well and we’re all utterly blown away by the support. Thank you to everyone who has supported us or shared the word so far… and if you haven’t yet, join us! Our Kickstarter campaign is here.
While we funded Year 1 in under four hours AND Year 2 in four days, we’re now aiming for stretch goals such as reprints of queer stories that are no longer available, more art, and nonfiction! After that? Well, we have ideas! Follow along and find out what comes next!
So if you want to support a queer speculative magazine trying to give queer stories, poetry, and art a space to exist, we appreciate it. Your support matters now more than ever.
