The Citadel, a long-running literary journal in the English/ESL department of Los Angeles City College where I teach, is seeking submissions for its annual issue from the writers near and far. It’s an excellent opportunity to get published and connect to readers and other writers.
Note that there is a $10 reading fee for all submissions, except those made by LACC students. All proceeds from the reading fees go towards the printing of the magazine and LACC student writing contest prizes, and the editorial board and readers work for free.

You’re charging writers a fee to submit to a magazine that readers have to pay to read, with no payment to writers if their work is accepted? What possible incentive is there?

Martin, I hate reading fees as much as you do. Note though that The Citadel is not a for-profit venture. All proceeds from the reading fees go towards the printing of the magazine and LACC student writing contest prizes, and the editorial board and readers work for free. I updated my post to make sure anyone visiting my site can see it right away.
