SUMMARY:PFN - MSU Libraries Short Édition Seeks Submissions with the Theme "Water"
DESCRIPTION:Exploring the theme of Water\nMichigan State University Libraries Short Édition\, an innovative publishing platform affiliated with the international publisher Short Édition\, seeks short work (8\,000 character max\, about 1\,000 words) exploring the theme of Water. Submissions accepted through December 16\, 2022. Selected work will appear online and in MSU Short Édition machines\, and will be considered for publication internationally. This call is in conjunction with the Broad Art Museum’s 2022 fall exhibit\, Flint is Family in Three Acts\, featuring the photography of Latoya Ruby Frazier. Water\, for our purposes\, will be broadly interpreted and might include meditations on physical\, social\, racial\, environmental\, or other themes. We seek work that avoids platitudes and sentimentality\, demonstrates a deep understanding of craft\, and engages with fresh thinking. \nAccepted submissions will be included in a print issue distributed to all authors and added to MSU Libraries collections. Work will also be compiled in a themed issue available on the MSUL Short Édition site. \nPlease limit submissions to one story\, one short essay\, or up to five poems. Poems must be submitted separately. For example\, if you are submitting five poems\, each poem must be uploaded individually. Each submission should include a short biography directly beneath the work. If you do not receive an automatic confirmation email for each submission\, we have not received your work. \nPlease do not submit previously published work for themed issues.

SUMMARY:F - The Molotov Cocktail Flash Contest Series Call for Submissions.  Theme: "Flash Monster"
DESCRIPTION:It’s after midnight\nsomewhere…\n \nSubmit to Flash Monster\nWell\, here’s something different. We’ve been running Halloween contests since 2014\, but this year\, in true nightmare before Christmas fashion\, we’re kicking off our Flash Monster contest mid-October and running it up until the holidays are upon us. \nThat may change the calculations on your lab-grown abominations a little bit; might be time to make your sins against Nature a touch more festive. \nThere’s plenty of room for holiday-themed horror here\, but we also don’t want to see 50 killer Santa Clauses or dozens of Krampuses (Krampi?). Mix things up. Winter themes work (we do love a good snow beast). So do monsters totally unrelated to winter and the holidays. \nIf you participated in or read our Folked-Up Flash contest earlier this year\, you know we’ve got a wicked hankering for folk horror\, and that’s not a bad angle to go here either. Tap into ancient pagan rituals. Subvert traditional holiday tropes. Gifts with sinister implications? Granted wishes with ironic outcomes? The holidays are a good time to mess with classical elements. A little sentimentality with your depravity? Sure\, why the hell not. We’re not monsters. Or just write about something gnarly and weird; that’s the whole point\, after all. \nWe like literary approaches\, but we also dig genre and pulpy takes as well.  Art house or grindhouse. Take a new approach to well-established monster archetypes or create something nobody’s ever seen before. \nYou can check out some past Flash Monster issues here\, here\, here\, here\, here\, here. \nThe top three entries will win cash money. \n$300 for Flash Monster 2022 winner \n$200 for 2nd place \n$100 for 3rd place \nWe also give mad respect to 4th-10th place\,\npublishing them in our Flash Monster mega-issue\nand in a future print anthology\, with contributor copy included. \n \nSubmit to Flash Monster\nFollow these guidelines\, and your best nightmare before Christmas could come true. \n– All submissions must absolutely be under 1\,000 words\, and we tend to look more kindly on 750 or fewer because… THREE-HEADED SQUIRREL! \n– All contest submissions will be read blind\, so we won’t be playing favorites. \n– Please paste your entry into the corresponding field. Do not list your name anywhere or we’ll assume you won’t be able to accurately recite the words that break the curse. \n– Submissions must be previously unpublished work\, and you will retain copyright (duh). By entering this contest\, you give us permission to publish your work (if selected for our Top 10) both online and in a future print anthology. \n– No limit on how many entries you can submit\, but you must submit them one at a time. Don’t just mash them all in there. \n– Contest soft deadline is end of day (PST) Monday\, December 5th\, 2022. Winners announced on December 19th and we’ll unwrap the Flash Monster 2022 mega-issue before the eggnog turns. \n– And\, most importantly\, this is a FLASH MONSTER contest\, so you must include some sort of literal or figurative monster. But again\, this can be in any form imaginable.
