SUMMARY:The Fiddlehead - POETRY - Call for Submission
DESCRIPTION:The Fiddlehead‘s regular submission period via Submittable is currently open. Our reading periods are February 15 – April 30 and September 15 – November 30. We accept poetry\, fiction\, and creative nonfiction. Due to overwhelming submission volume\, once your work has been submitted\, we cannot process substitutions or modifications. Mailed submissions (in any category) are accepted and considered throughout the year. \nWe have three writing contests:  \n\nPoetry: opens September 1. Deadline December 1. Winning poem to be published in spring issue.\nCreative Nonfiction: opens March 1. Deadline June 1. Winning piece to be published in fall issue.\nShort Fiction: opens June 1. Deadline September 1. Winning story to be published in winter issue.\n\n*If a deadline falls on a weekend\, the deadline moves to the Monday. Deadlines are midnight Atlantic Time. Mailed submissions must be postmarked. \n* * * \nThe Fiddlehead is open to good writing in English or translations into English from all over the world and in a variety of styles\, including experimental genres. Our editors are always happy to see new unsolicited works in fiction\, including excerpts from novels\, creative nonfiction\, and poetry. We also publish reviews\, and occasionally other selected creative work such as excerpts from plays. Work is read on an ongoing basis; the acceptance rate is around 1-2% (we are\, however\, famous for our rejection notes!). Apart from our annual contest\, we have no deadlines for submissions. \nWe particularly welcome submissions from Indigenous writers\, writers of colour\, writers with disabilities\, LGBTQQIA+ writers\, and writers from other intersectional and under-represented communities. If you are comfortable identifying yourself as one or more of the above\, please feel free to mention this in your cover letter. \nThe Fiddlehead will not read work that is ableist\, misogynistic\, queer-phobic\, or racist. \nIf you are serious about submitting to The Fiddlehead\, you should read an issue or two to get a sense of the journal. Consider subscribing  or contact us to order sample back issues ($10-$15 plus postage). \nGeneral Guidelines for Unsolicited Submissions\n• Pay is $60 CAD per published page\, plus two complimentary copies of the issue with your work. Contributors may purchase additional copies of an issue at a discount. \n• The Fiddlehead buys first serials rights; copyright is retained by the author at all times\, and authors are free to resell the work\, though we do ask for a 90-day exclusive from our first publication of the work. \n• Writers may only submit once per calendar year per genre. (This does not include our contests). \n• Please wait for an editorial response before submitting again. We try our best to respond in a timely matter\, but due to volume of submissions\, a response may take 6 months or more. Please wait 6 months before querying. \n• We only consider unpublished work. Please do not submit work that has been previously published or accepted for publication\, including in anthologies\, chapbooks\, blogs\, Facebook pages\, or online journals. \n• For online submissions\, please submit one file containing your creative work (.doc\, .docx\, or .pdf). Log back in any time to check the status of your submission. \n• For hard copy\, mailed submissions\, all submissions should be typed/word-processed\, spell-checked\, and paginated. Please use white paper\, print on one side only\, and put your name on every page of your submission. \n• In Submittable\, please copy and paste your cover letter and biographical statement in the appropriate fields. \n• Tell us in your cover letter whether your submission is exclusive to The Fiddlehead or whether you have submitted it to other magazines simultaneously. If another magazine accepts your work for publication that you have also submitted to us\, then please advise us immediately.

SUMMARY:PNF - Puerto del Sol Seeks Writing on Water
DESCRIPTION:For over half a century\, Puerto del Sol has been dedicated to provide a forum for inventive and fresh prose\, poetry\, reviews\, criticism\, and artwork; and we strive to publish voices from emerging and established writers and artists. Most importantly\, we pride ourselves in not following a standardized aesthetic—instead\, we seek work that presents authenticity\, sincerity\, and respect. We recommend reading our most current issue or works from our online journal to get a sense of the content we have published recently. Thank you for your interest in our magazine\, and we look forward to reading your work. \nPuerto del Sol seeks work which engages with water in all its forms. Life and growth and blood and poison and drought and commodity. Snow and steam and tsunami. We want to read work as sharp and brittle as ice. We want stories\, essays\, and poems which drip from dew-soaked branches or crash like waterfalls. Show us something as vast as the sea or as small as a single droplet of acid rain. Send us your explorations of fluidity\, of the ways things shift and change\, and of things which cannot be held\, no matter how hard we try.
