From the Editor: We’re All Magic
Addison Herron-Wheeler is OUT FRONT's co-publisher and editor-in-chief and friend…
Happy fall, y’all! I’m one of those all-year-round Halloween people, someone who stays stocked on pumpkin spice and considers Halloween decorations home decor. I know technically, summer is the season of Pride, but because I love fall so much, I always feel especially connected to my queer community during spooky season.
This is the time that alt drag performers and “alternative” queer folks really feel we can shine and fit in. We all start to settle in for cold weather, warm sweaters, coffee drinks and looking at fall leaves, and there’s just something so magical about it. It’s no wonder that our ancestors thought this time of year and the change of the seasons has a certain magic to it.
In this issue, we honor the witchy and the spiritual through photos and a deeper look at magical practice, and we also embrace some other very valid forms of magic: yoga and healing, anti-racism work, music and community, and a love for horror and the macabre.
So, without further ado, we present you with the Queer Magic issue. Stay magic, and enjoy the fall!
