LNmag is an independent digital magazine for lesbian, bisexual, and queer women and non-binary people — covering culture, news, relationships, health, style, celebrity, travel, and community, with the kind of depth a scrolling feed doesn't leave room for. It's not brand new: it's the relaunch of a small, handmade print zine that used to get passed around queer bars and bookshops in Washington and California, with none of the polish (or budget) of a big media company behind it.
The homepage leads with "Vol. 1" — the current set of featured, reported stories, written by a small volunteer staff, browsable by beat (Culture & Community, News & Politics, Life & Relationships, Style & Home, Health & Sports, Celeb & Travel, Tech & Apps, Twee, Vintage, and Visual Arts). Beyond the magazine itself, the site has a Business Directory and Classifieds for the community, a growing Video and Blog section, a newsletter, and an About page that tells the real, unglamorous story of where this started.
