billy doo is a bi-annual print magazine featuring theme-based collections of writing and art by and for queer (lqbtqai2s+) community, and collected through open calls for submissions. 

Taking its name from Polari* vocabulary (secret slang developed by queer ancestors and used primarily from the 1920s-1970s), billy doo means, ‘love letter’ and each issue aims to be a powerful source for community connection and personal storytelling.
