The Lavender Hour Review is now accepting contributions from those who wish to publish their analyses of local hotspots, writerly spaces, and independent art. We are seeking reviews made for and by women and nonbinary folks, especially when intersecting with other marginalized experiences.
Does the bar down the street make you feel safe? We want to know about it! Did someone you know and/or admire recently publish a novel? We want to read about it! Do you have a favorite venue for making and sharing art? I’m telling you, we want to hear about it!
If you’re interested in getting your opinions and the opinions of others in front of an audience, please direct inquiries to thelavenderhourreviewz@proton.me. We’re eager to hear from you, and in so doing, learn more about your communities, and our own!
1. Please keep submissions under 200 words.
2. Please use Times New Roman font - size 12.
3. Please submit your file as a .doc or .docx
4. Do NOT use AI - if you do, your family line will be cursed forever.
5. Please make sure all submissions keep in mind how the subject relates to: radical joy, queer safety, community, and the overall vibes of the venue.
6. We are currently accepting reviews for: venues, shows, events, galleries, community programs, community resources, kink friendly spaces, open calls for submissions, indie books, and bookstores.
7. We are mainly looking for positive reviews about places that exemplify community and queer safety. If you would like to submit a warning about an unsafe environment, please send us your 1 star reviews but save your 3 star reviews for yelp. We only want to know if it is dangerous, not if the drinks were bad.
8. Please title the submission: the name of the venue/subject and a 1-5 star rating. Please submit ONE document/review at a time and submit individual forms for each review.
9. Sign your review with a funky creative handle and not your name. Ex. @freakymonkey93
10. Keep it fun. Keep it fresh. Keep it funky.
