PFN – Call for Submissions to Wordpeace. Theme: “Bodily Autonomy”
WORDPEACE is a semi-annual digital project of literary response to world events in the spirit of promoting peace, hope and justice for all people. We are looking for previously unpublished essays, interviews, fiction and poetry (or mixed media) to publish which reflect this aim. We welcome international, LGBTQ+, BIPOC and diverse voices. We want work that asks for positive change, critiques the status quo, and is forward thinking. We publish writing that takes a stand against corruption and greed, brutality, brutality, xenophobia, homophobia, prejudice, genocide and oligarchy.
Wordpeace is featuring poems, fiction, essays and artwork for a special section of the spring/summer 2023 issue. We’d like to give space to the losses due to Roe being overturned but also the backing away of civil society from the extension of autonomy to trans people. Work that has been already submitted will be considered for this section as well.
We publish semi-annually, with submissions open in February/March (for August/September publication) and October/November (for February / March publication). Simultaneous submissions are fine, as long as you let us know right away if your work has been accepted elsewhere.
