No Tokens Journal

No Tokens Journal is a literary magazine "celebrating work that is felt in the spine."[1] It was established by T Kira Madden, who said it arose out of a need for more equity in publishing.[2] The first issue appeared in Spring 2014.[3] It publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction.[1] No Tokens is run entirely by women, queer, trans, and non-binary individuals.[4] Their staff reviews and votes on all submissions in all genres.[2]

The name came from a conversation about three people "missing things – that was all. Subway tokens were one of those things. Print journals were another."[1] In the past, the magazine has run a Young Poets Prize.[5]
