Magazine Submissions
The Savage Consortium is seeking the confession you are finally ready to purge. We want your raw body and naked imagination. We want your emotional, intelligent, visceral, and psychological confession that derives from the sexual.
Above all, we want your most intimate experiences written and represented as they truly are: Pure, Intense, and Without Restraint. Your submission/s should endeavor to push every conventional facet of language and thematic structure. This includes innovative content, syntax, margins, white space, plot structure, etc. (Do not rely on obscenity alone.) If nothing is at stake in your submission/s, if there is no risk, do not submit. Nothing safe will be published in The Savage Consortium.
