These magazines pay for fiction; a few also accept other genres, like non-fiction and poetry. Some deadlines are approaching quickly. – S. Kalekar

Barrelhouse: Baby One More Time
They’re reading fiction submissions for a themed online issue. “Parenting-related short fiction that somehow involves famous musician icons. Think in terms of your daughter being kidnapped by a Beyonce impersonator and the real Beyonce teaming up with you to rescue her. Think of the sons of Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake meeting at a CrossFit class, falling in love, and the ensuing wedding chaos. Think of running away with The Weeknd in a desperate effort to find happiness in this monstrous world…and it becomes your child’s villain origin story.
Rock legends, DJs, rappers, famous drummers, whatever and whoever you love in the music world: put them into an epic and/or funny and/or scary and/or heartbreaking parenting situation. Theirs or yours or someone’s.” They’re also currently open for book reviews, which are unpaid. All other genres are closed.
