PFN – Call for Submissions to NonBinary Review. Theme: Mistaken Identity

NonBinary Review is currently open for submissions on the theme of MISTAKEN IDENTITY.

How often have you waved to a friend across a room, only to realize the person you waved to isn’t who you thought they were? These benign little episodes of mistaken identity can be laughed off, but there are so many times and so many ways mistaken identity can be humiliating, criminal, traumatic, life-altering, transforming. Whether you are the one who made the mistake or the one who is being mistaken for someone else, there are so many ways it can happen, and so many ways to respond.

We want your weird, wonderful, bizarre, impossible stories of mistaken identity. We don’t want “I accidentally met the love of my life because I mistook them for my friend” stories. More like “I accidentally stopped the Earth from being blown to bits because I mistook the alien invaders for mosquitos and sprayed them with bug spray.” We want to be captivated by the unlikeliness of a story that probably could never really happen.
