Laughter is the best medicine. We are looking for stories about something that happened to you in your life that made you and the people around you laugh out loud. We can't wait to hear your true stories. We want them to be silly, outrageous and hilarious, and they absolutely must make us laugh!
Submissions must include something about growing older / ageing. The Lifespan Series offers a unique opportunity to contribute works taking characters across the arc of their whole lives, whether prose or poetry, fiction or non-fiction.
What is Secret Menu? Secret Menu is a hack. Secret Menu is the ways we treat ourselves, celebrate small victories, sharing with one another when we don’t have to.
In honour of our 10th issue, we’re getting literal and asking for submissions on film, TV, music videos, and pop culture relating to the number 10!
We are open to interpretations on the theme: love, friendship, companionship; losing relations, relationships to animals, plants, and objects; relationships between ecosystems or among the stars. Send us your interpretation however literal or liberal.
Are your celebrations very traditional or are they very spontaneous and never the same? We want to hear how you celebrate your holidays.
The theme for this issue is “Wondrous & Miraculous.” You may interpret this theme however you like.
Send us pieces about music, background noise, or other aspects of your sensory or extrasensory perception. What do you see, feel, and/or remember when you hear certain pieces of music or environmental sounds? How have you been able to minimise the noise and increase the good vibrations in your life?
Gypsophila complements any flower placed beside it in a bouquet or flowerbed. This magazine combines art and literature, visual and verbal art coming together to create something beautiful. Just like how baby’s breath (gypsophila) can grow in tandem with almost any other flower.
We define holiday stories as those that involve any holiday from US Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day, or stories that reference those holidays. (There are many such holidays, so let your imagination fly.)
We are looking for short stories and poems that are spooky or fantastical or both. Don’t be afraid to blend genres and experiment.
