We feature 3) reviews of books\, graphic novels\, academic journals\, magazines\, movies\, plays\, and so forth which have a Pagan focus\, or which otherwise might interest our Pagan readership. And 4) interviews with established and new Pagan authors\, or authors of texts that interest a Pagan audience. And finally\, 5) essays concerning the Gods\, Goddesses\, heroes\, myths and folklore of the world. \nSubmission Guidelines We’re looking for hymns to Odin and Inanna and Sekhmet. Prayers to Hermes and Brigid and Asherah. Short stories featuring (or otherwise referencing) Lugh and Yinepu and Hekate. Every poetic form\, from sonnet to rhyming couplet to free form\, is acceptable. There is no set length. Any genre of short story is welcome\, from mystery to fantasy to true lifeish to reimaginings of classic myths\, provided the Deities and heroes are treated respectfully (no bashing someone else’s Gods\, please!). There is no length limit\, but if you are planning to write a novella\, please discuss that with the editors of EHS in advance; any story over 5000 words will likely be serialized across two or more issues. \nPoems or stories that feature Deities from pantheons generally considered to be outside the Pagan umbrella\, but which are still from polytheistic traditions — such as a poem to the Hawaiian Pele or a short story focusing on the Shinto Amaterasu-omikami — are absolutely welcome. The wider the diversity of traditions represented\, the happier the editors are. \nWe are also interested in essays which address the nature of the Deities\, the mythologies of the various pantheons\, folklore\, ritual\, et cetera and et cetera. So\, for example\, we would be keen to read your essay on Hermanubis and how He relates to Hermes and Anubis. Or\, your essay examining primary sources for The Cailleach. Or\, a discussion of the evolution of Veles from (benevolent) God of the Underworld to (Christian) demon and how Polish and Slavic Pagans are resurrecting His worship. \nWinter 2023: Horror. Submission Period: 1 November through 1 December 2023. Fear. Trepidation. Terror and revulsion. Send us your best scary poems and stories inspired by the world’s polytheistic mythologies and spiritual traditions. Send us poems about sailors journeying between Scylla and Charybdis. Send us short stories about the youth of Athens facing the Minotaur. Send us poems about Yūrei and stories about the Headless Mule. Send us essays about the literary evolution of redcaps\, the transformation of indigenous spirits into demons\, the use of Western spirituality in Eastern horror movies. Violence and gore must be appropriate to the story. We want horror\, not splatterpunk. [Please note: we are not averse to pieces featuring vampires and werewolves. However\, any such submissions must be firmly grounded in an ancient or extant polytheistic/Pagan tradition. And\, please\, be original.] URL:https://anovelapproach.ca/submission_calendar/event/pfn-eternal-haunted-summer-pagan-songs-tales-horror/ LOCATION:Eternal Haunted Summer CATEGORIES:Call for Submission END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20231201T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20231201T170000 DTSTAMP:20231111T235742Z CREATED:20231111T235742Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231111T235742Z UID:3266-1701417600-1701450000@anovelapproach.ca SUMMARY:PFN - Open Call to Superpresent Magazine.
