Shantell Powell<p>Today is the day of declining. Three rejections from three different lit mags so far.

Shantell Powell<p>Don&#39;t blame authors if their writing is accompanied by AI-generated illustrations. Unless self-published, we rarely have any say in what images accompany our work. That being said, I&#39;m no longer interested in sending my work off to a certain magazine now that it started using AI for illustrations. <a href="https://c.im/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ReadingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ReadingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/LitMags" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LitMags</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>enshittification</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/AISlop" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AISlop</span></a></p>

Shantell Powell<p>It’s National Indigenous Peoples month, but I haven’t noticed any pay-to-submit magazines waiving submissions fees for Indigenous authors.

Shantell Powell<p>If a magazine demands no simultaneous submissions, they should at least have a rapid response rate.

Shantell Powell<p>It’s happened again. I worked on a personalized cover letter for a magazine listed in Submittable as having free submissions only to find out the tip jar is mandatory.
