The radical feminist journal Rain and Thunder is calling for submissions for their next journal issue, which is completely focused on creative writing.

What strategies do radical feminists use in our creative writing and work to radically disrupt and transform language? Which radical feminist creative writers have impacted you and why? What does the future of radical feminist creative expression look like? Contributions can be sent by mail to Rain and Thunder, PO Box 674, Northampton, MA 01061 or by e-mail to rainandthunder@yahoo.com.
