Sage Cigarettes Magazine will release its first compiled issue since Oct. 2021 on June 20, 2024. The issue theme will be The Sun (XIX).
The theme is tarot-based but open to wide interpretation. The sun is the card of Leo, of summer, of deep abiding happiness, of fields of summer flowers, & the smell of sun-kissed wood. In reverse, the sun card is an indication of incomplete happiness, of good fortune just out of reach, of realizing that joy is a feeling & nothing is final. Tell us about the best days of your life, the days that fell short, the days that were golden despite it all. Explore the feeling of the sun at your back, the hum of tires against pavement during a summer road trip, the smell of warm honeysuckle.
We will consider a wide variety of takes on the theme.
We will open for submissions for this new issue on April 1, 2024 & close May 15, 2024. We will accept poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, & art in the theme of The Sun (XIX).
