I don't have a story to submit, but I'm bookmarking the magazine's website so I can buy the issue when it comes out-- I just love the title too much. :D (At first I thought this thread was a call to action.)

You're welcome. :)

I forgot the comma. ;)

Actually if all goes well, next will be fantasy and horror! :D

No fantasy for this special issue, though if our Kickstarter campaign goes well we might unlock Queers Destroy Fantasy! and Queers Destroy Horror! special issues as well.

This seems like an awesome opportunity! Perhaps I will translate some things I have completed. :D

Yes! I was looking for a thread on this. Apparently it got quiltbagged. hehehe

Anyway, I submitted a story, and am working on another in case I get rejected in time to resubmit (and becaue I'm just having a lot of fun with it).

Would anyone like to swap QDSF stories for critique or just sharing?

They passed on my story, "The Confessions of Frankenstein(GIRL)" though they said nice things about it, and urged me to send them future work. So, I can include the story in the ebook collection (The Locket and Other Tales)I'm putting together (with my novella). Very nice as far as rejections go.

YAY!! I was waiting for the Horror guidelines to go up. I have a half-finished story I *should* be able to whip into shape by April.

I wrote something for the QDF but turns out it's too short, dang it.

Yeah, I'm bummed they're not accepting flash -- QDSF was explicitly calling for flash, and I had a flash fantasy story I'd been planning to sub. Oh well!

Especially since one can imagine fantasy being a more fertile ground to poetry. Or perhaps is for that very reason. Mmm...

I know it's not the same, but Fireside is open to flash fiction for ~1 month. They take most genres and pay $.125/word. Worth considering.
