Your Words on Tagg

Before we dive into this issue, we have a fun announcement: We're looking for pitches for articles, essays, interviews, media reviews, and listicles to be published on Tagg! We're also accepting erotica for Tagg After Dark. Please note that we don't publish fiction (except for erotica) nor do we publish poetry.
​
Before you reach out, you should know that we currently can’t afford to pay for work. In fact, no one at Tagg is paid right now: we're keeping this going for the love of the community.

Still interested? Fill out this form and we'll get back to you!


FRESHLY SCOOPED

​We need to talk about the latest lesbian bar drama: Last Ditch​

Across the internet, people are poking fun at lesbians after a disagreement between patrons and leadership at a small lesbian bar in Massachusetts went viral. But does all this visibility help or hurt our community?

LOCAL LGBTQ+ MEDIA GIVING DAY

It's getting harder and harder to keep LGBTQ+ media alive. As the economy slips, so does our ability to secure advertisers, as companies need to keep their cash close. Even worse? This administration's anti-DEI laws have scared many financially secure advertisers and sponsors away.
​
Every year, we team up with our friends in News Is Out to raise money for local LGBTQ+ media outlets. LGBTQ+ publications, like Tagg, allow LGBTQ+ folks to report on and consume news and culture directly tied to our communities.
​
This year, Local LGBTQ+ Media Giving Day is October 8. Mark your calendars now! Or don't: We promise to pop back into your inbox later this week to let you know when the day is here.
