Would you pay $2 for the privilege of submitting poetry to a lit mag electronically? Why or why not? Disclosure: I am a former subscriber of 32 Poems. (I rotate lit mag subscriptions to help support a variety of lit mags, with a dozen or so subscriptions per year. I’m explaining so that it doesn’t seem like I quit subscribing because I thought it was a bad lit mag.)
