We are no longer accepting submissions for issue 12 (Fall 2023) of bedfellows. Thank you so much to those who submitted!
bedfellows (est. 2013) is a Philadelphia-based literary magazine focused on discussions of desire & intimacy, with an emphasis on underrepresented & marginalized voices. We're particularly interested in work that subverts or confronts the stigmas & assumptions often attached to writing about sex & the body. If you'd like to get a better sense of what we're all about, prior issues & contributors can be found here.
We tend to receive/publish predominantly poetry, but we're very open to prose, flash, & other short works. The issue will first appear in print, then online shortly thereafter.
Submissions are currently closed. We will provide notice on our next reading period in August of 2023.
During our next period, a submission form will be shown on this page. Submissions sent by email will not be considered.
