Hi, I stumbled across your blog while looking at literary sites and find it very interesting. May I ask how one becomes a “solicited” source? Everything looks really good, I look forward to reading the first issue!

Solicited sources were usually through people I already know at the moment. I don’t have a lot of time to go through stacks of submissions at the moment so don’t want to open it up to everyone just yet.
Send me an email at redpenzine@gmail.com and let me know what you’re about. We’re mainly looking for left-wing or socialist type writers though that doesn’t mean we’re looking for explicitly political work.
