Allium are flowering plants that include hundreds of species. Alliums vary dramatically in size, shape, and color, and are cultivated as both vegetable and ornament. They naturally resist taxonomy. Our Allium aspires to create a similar resistance by publishing diverse creative voices, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and neurodiverse communities that have been underrepresented in literature, recognized and emerging writers, and a variety of forms and genres from the traditional to the experimental. Allium accepts simultaneous submissions, requests a maximum page length of five pages for poetry; fifteen pages for fiction and nonfiction. No previously published work.
