Announcing the Fifth Recipient of the Authors Publish Fund for Literary Journals

In September 2020 we started a new fund for literary journals. You can learn all about this fund here.

We selected the recipient of the fund using a random number generator.

We are happy to announce that Sienna Solstice is the fifth recipient of our fund and will receive 150 (US) dollars.

Sienna Solstice “is an antidsciplinary project that strives to capture the present and future human condition in all dimensions by dissolving the lines between art and science. A nexus of scientific research publications, creative writing, podcasts, photography, musical compositions, short films and essays, we seek an unapologetic celebration of the human curiosity that connects us all.”

They are currently open to submissions. Please read their first two issues before submitting.

Thank you to everyone who has applied.

Journals who have already submitted themselves for consideration will be considered in future draws as well. There is no need to resubmit.

There are currently only seven literary journals on the list, so if you run a journal that needs funding, don’t hesitate to apply. If you know of a journal that needs funding, please encourage the editor(s) to apply for the funding.

We will select our sixth recipient in February.
