Solstice positions its Graphic Lit category as a deliberate expansion of the magazine's longstanding commitment to diverse voices, extending that mandate into the visual-verbal space of comics. The editors are explicit about seeking work that pushes against formal boundaries: personal narratives, fiction, poetry, and essays rendered in multiple panels. This is not a venue for single-image illustration; the magazine's framework requires sequential work that unfolds across panels and can be displayed within a web-based reading environment. The practical terms are straightforward and artist-friendly. Submissions should be original, unpublished, and between one and six pages preferred, with a maximum of eight to ten pages, in JPG or PDF format. Solstice acquires first and one-time rights only, with the right to archive the work; after publication, contributors are free to place the piece elsewhere. There is a three-dollar submission fee. The magazine does not specify payment or prize, and its guidelines emphasize fit over biography. What the editors appear to value is work that is legible on the page and urgent in its perspective—comics that carry a distinct voice rather than demonstrating technical polish alone. The category is new, which means the editorial identity is still being formed; early contributors have an opportunity to help define what Graphic Lit at Solstice looks like.
