Open Secrets Magazine is a lit mag and community for sharing personal stories about all the subjects we're taught to keep “secret. ” Launched in April 2023, we publish 4-5 original personal essays per week (occasionally more) and host online and in-person literary events.
Open Secrets Magazine is edited by essayist, journalist, writing instructor, and editor Rachel Kramer Bussel. We also publish columns The ADHD Diaries by Rachel Kramer Bussel, Radical Pleasure by Athena Dixon, and Truth Hurts by John DeVore.
