Luna Park is constantly looking for submissions about literary magazines—reviews, interviews, essays, poems, art installations, dance interpretations, hat tricks, what have you. We publish looks at and responses to the art, culture, and history of literary magazines. Think New York Review of Books blended with The Believer, or Times Literary Supplement coupled with The Stranger--but about lit mags, art mags, zines. We publish occasionally (meaning constantly). We also publish excerpts from literary magazines, and interviews with authors and editors---such as Nam Le, Laura van den Berg, and Benjamin Percy.
For examples of what we publish, read through the site or go to our previous blog existence. Also, check out what they are doing over at such other places as Rain Taxi or The Magazineer.

Writing about lit mag publishing, fiction, poetry, nonfiction, writing, submissions, or whatever if it is relevant.
We invited editors and writers to participate in a series on issues and representations of race, class, gender, and sexuality in independent publishing. We asked them how these issues affected them as editors interested in publishing underrepresented communities, or writers who want to challenge dominant notions of identity.
