CANADIAN MAGAZINES

The AA Independent Press Guide started life as a supplement to Acid Angel Magazine, The AA Independent Press Guide started life as a supplement to Acid Angel Magazine, back in 1998. Since then, it has grown and grown, and now over 2,000 print and internet magazines and publishers are listed from all over the world. The one thing that hasn’t expanded is the editorial team. That is, it is still a one-man operation, and it is physically impossible for this one man to keep tabs on everything in this guide. Whilst I endeavour to keep The AA Independent Press Guide as accurate and up-to-date as possible I just don’t have the time, energy or finance necessary to constantly check and re-check each listing. Magazines and publishers come and go, just like that. So, inevitably, some of the magazines and publishers listed here will no longer be operational. There will also be omissions in this guide: magazines and publishers that aren’t listed. You can help out, by making me aware of any inaccuracies and omissions in this guide. Just email me at dee@thunderburst.co.uk and let me know what you know. Then I can let everyone else know too!

The listings that are highlighted in yellow refer to magazines that will accept electronic submissions, but be aware that there are usually stipulations attached.

Please note that these listings are no longer provided for FREE. It is requested that you make a donation towards the upkeep of the website and for the time and energy that I have to put into maintaining, updating and developing all the resources on this website. If sufficient donations are not forthcoming I will have no other choice but to pull the plug and go get a "real" job. So, for your own sake, and for the sake of other writers, make a donation and help to keep these resources available for everyone. If you aren't willing to help out then the chances are, next time you come here all you will get is an "Error 403" message.
