SUMMARY:PFN - ROOM Magazine Seeking Submissions Exploring the Theme of "Bodies"
DESCRIPTION:Room publishes original fiction\, creative nonfiction\, and poetry by folks of marginalized genders\, including but not limited to women (cisgender and transgender)\,  transgender men\, Two-Spirit and nonbinary people. We encourage writers with overlapping under-represented identities to submit\, and we don’t want writers to feel restricted by gender or genre labels\, so if you are unsure if your work is a fit for Room\, please get in touch. \nWade through the pleasures and pains of the flesh with us in the BODIES issue!\nWe’re seeking writing about touch and isolation\, trans and queer embodiment\, fat liberation\, chronic illness and disability\, brutality\, sensuality\, and other meditations on the bones and muscles you inhabit every day. What words live in the relationship between your body and other bodies? Between your body and the land beneath it? Explore what it means to feel empowered and grounded in your body—and what it means to feel betrayed by it. Have you ever lost your body to dissociation? Or perhaps to transcendence? The body is a site of self-love\, self-hate\, and body neutrality alike: accepting loving odes\, body horror\, and everything in between. \n\nSubmit your work through Submittable. We do not accept submissions via mail.\nSubmit only work that has not been previously published (in print or online).\nWe gladly accept simultaneous submissions. If another magazine accepts your work for publication\, please advise us and withdraw your piece immediately.\nWe do not charge for submissions\, with the exception of our annual contests\, which also come with a one-year print subscription.\nFiction and creative non-fiction: up to 3500 words\, double spaced.\nPoetry: up to 5 poems\, submitted in a single doc file\, with each poem starting on a new page.\nSubmit all work in 12-point font\, Times New Roman preferred.

SUMMARY:PN - Call for Submissions to Bad Day Book. Theme: "Love"
DESCRIPTION:No matter how you look at it\, some days are just bad days. Often times you are able to look back on those days and laugh about what happened. The Bad Day Book is here to help you take a step back and realize one day you may laugh about what is happening. Or\, it might even help you realize that compared to others\, maybe it isn’t really as bad of a day as you thought. \nWhat are the rules for story and poem submissions? \n\nStories should be about bad things\, but that are still funny. We are not looking to include tragic or heart breaking stories. This book is to get others to laugh\, gasp\, and cringe.\nStories MUST be personal and true events that have already happened. No AI bot stories. No creative writing. No fiction.\nWe prefer stories under 1200 words. We will consider works up to 1500 words\, but it is rare to have works picked that are over the preferred 1200.\nStories should be written with first person narration and told in past tense.\nDo not include any vulgarity\, controversial topics\, politics\, sex/drugs\, drinking\, illegal activities\, curse/crass/crude words. This is a family friendly publication.\nThough many bad days are caused by a “villain”\, whether it be a person/company\, do not name drop or tear down others. Focus the story on what happens directly to you and not the people on the other end. We will not publish works that are written to tear others down\, even if they have done shady stuff. You may refer to others as friends\, coworkers\, family member\, pen names or a vague descriptor.\nStories should include a beginning\, middle\, and an end. Begin straight in the action; no introductions to the story are necessary. Make sure you conclude your story\, but please do not end the story with any recap. It’s always best to end with a laugh.\nOnly submit a story once to each theme you would like it considered for. (Stories submitted more than once per theme will be deleted.)\nPoems must tell a story.\nWe do not pay for submissions\, only for published works.\nWe do not accept all submitted stories and poems to be published. Though not all submissions will be published in books\, some will be accepted for social media publication.\nIf your story or poem is selected to be published in one of our books or social media\, you will be asked to sign a permission release contract. The contract will allow The Bad Day Book rights to publish your story.\n\nYou maintain copyright under your name\nLicense will grant The Bad Day Book exclusive rights for 12 months\, with permission to use story in later editions as well. (Not exclusively-Written permission from author will be required for other uses)\nAfter the 12 months author may self-publish in any form (book\, blog\, etc) without making any changes to story or referencing The Bad Day Book.\nAfter 12 months author may publish with any third-party any rewritten variation of this story/life experience. No reference to The Bad Day Book required.\n\n\nPlease do not contact us to ask for an update about your story unless you need to know whether we are considering it because another publisher is interested in it too.\nIf your story or poem is not selected for any of the variations you have requested\, you will be notified if we would like to hold the submission for a different book edition or if The Bad Day Book with be passing on your story or poem.\nWe will not consider previous published stories or poems\, with one exception being previously published stories or poem from personal blog publications.\nAuthor name can be shown as first name only\, first and last name\, or a pen name if you would prefer to not use your real name\n\nIf you have already submitted a story or poem and are looking to change any story details or contact information please email mystory@thbaddaybook.com \nWe do not pay for submissions. We only pay for stories and poems that are published in books or on social media.
