166 New Magazines On Chill Subs
Give some love to awesome lit mags!
I hope your break’s breakin’ (or not breakin’, but you get what I mean) away and you’re all set for a cozy, easy holiday. Since we too are (mostly) on break for the next couple weeks, we thought we’d send a special list your way honoring the newest additions to our Chill Subs database.
Most of these mags were created this year, but some are older. All of them are new and fresh to us though because we just added them. They haven’t been on any of our lists this year, so they probably haven’t gotten much of your attention either.
Explore. There are loads of them. Discover something new, maybe submit to a place or two (or more) and bookmark them on Chill Subs if you really love ‘em.
