An eclectic list of 25 publications looking for everything from middle-grade fiction to offbeat stories that stretch genres. New to the list: agents and full-length book publications!
I live just outside Philadelphia on the Jersey side. I can see the NE part of the city across the river at the end of my street.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art is a world-class showcase of wonderful art. It has an armory and a cloister inside. Elfreth’s Alley is one of the oldest continuously inhabited streets in the country. Of course Old City Hall and the NPS sites there are great. The Liberty Bell is not far either. Hiking along the Wissahickon is also great and is a paradise of nature in the city limits.
Philly is a fantastic food town for sure. Any of Jose Garces’ restaurants is great, but Amada (tapas) is our favorite. Buena Onda (tacos) for more casual. Michael Solomonov’s restaurants are our favorite. Zahav (Israeli)is the crown jewel and is hard to get in, so look for reservations ahead. Laser Wolf is delicious. Dizengoff hummusiya is amazing too and easy to get into. Jim’s on South Street or Delessandro’s on Henry Avenue for cheesesteaks. Don’t believe the hype about Pat’s and Geno’s.
Philly is highly walkable and super tourist-friendly. PM me if you have questions. I’m a Philly Enthusiast!
PS - Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square is about 40 minutes away and is one of the most spectacular botanical gardens in the world.
Absolutely. I love Philadelphia and would be happy to help. 🤓 PS-o have family in Tucson and adore Arizona. I’ve spent quite a bit of time all over the state. It’s a gem of a place.
Thank you for these roundups! I don’t think I would have known where to start submitting without them. I have placed poems with Solid Food Press, Heart of Flesh, and Calla Press all from your lists!!
A fabulous list this month! I have an essay publishing in Calla Press's Spring journal thanks to your Feb/March list!
I am so happy to hear that—congratulations! I cannot wait to read your essay!
