Hey, readers! This month’s theme is all about YOUR ID: we’re devoting Issue 22 to the web of fabulous ideas spinning inside your brain, your favorite celebrity idols and their most iconic (or idiotic) moments, as well as all the idiosyncrasies that make you … well, you.

Loco Magazine is a lifestyle and culture publication looking for fresh perspectives from college students. We’re seeking thoughtful submissions from talented writers, artists, photographers and videographers who want to share their stories. We’re not strictly a news publication, so interpret our theme as literally or loosely as you like — from a comprehensive guide of the most idyllic places in Philly to your thoughts on how your identity has changed from when you took that awful Freshman ID photo. Delve deeper into the hot button issue of voter ID laws, make a playlist of the best musicians from Idaho, or sit down with a friend and get the skinny on whether their international travels were as ideal as they expected.

Our sections include Travel, Lifestyle, Photo/Video, Entertainment, and Features. Features typically run around 2,500 words, but feel free to write as much as your heart desires. We’re an electronic publication so space is unlimited. We’ll accept anything from a 250 word photospread to a 500 word interview. All we ask is that your submissions are unique; we want to hear your voice and uncensored opinions, so let us know how you really feel and let your creativity shine.

Your final article will need to be submitted no later than February 22, 2016. You can find where to pitch your idea under the “Submit Work” tab on the Loco Mag homepage.

Send any questions to editor@locomag.com, and make sure to follow us on Twitter @locomag and like us on Facebook.
