SUMMARY:P - Abridged 0-101: Rebecca – theme: Haunting\, Convention\, Repression & Resistance
DESCRIPTION:ABRIDGED 0 -101: REBECCA SUBMISSION CALL\n‘From the smoky stacks of Merthyr…to a crumbling Manderlay’\n\nRebecca is in every picture we hang on our wall\, every shirt we slide from the hanger\,  every meal we lift to our mouths. The rooted tradition. The gripping convention. The language we find on our tongues. The shimmer of nostalgia. Rebecca is the hands of the past around the present\, intoxicatingly assured\, especially when we’re not. Rebecca knows. Rebecca was here first. The conspicuous absence. The room we can’t escape. Rebecca is the double\, the other\, the could have been. Rebecca made the footsteps we’re walking in. The mask and the masked. If we think too much about Rebecca\, we’ll start to wonder who we are. In place of our own names\, we write ‘Rebecca’. \nRemember Rebecca. Bury Rebecca. Love Rebecca. Fear Rebecca. Resist Rebecca. Fall into Rebecca. Wear Rebecca. Become Rebecca. Not just a person but personification. Not just a queen but a kingdom. Nobody’s mother but mother to millions. Rebecca waits in the dark and under the surface. Rebecca is the power of expectation and envy. Rebecca is the feared and desired. Rebecca is the rule and the resistance. Rebecca is wild in every attic. Rebecca is not what she seems. The skeleton in the cupboard. The corset in the drawer. The strings around our wrists. Rebecca is both the gate and the break-out. Rebecca’s sins cannot be spoken. Rebecca is our own unspoken sin. Rebecca made you do it. Rebecca won’t forget. Rebecca returns and returns. The house we exist in\, the house we keep running from\, the house that calls us back\, and the lit match that could burn it all down. \nOfficial memory is used to sanitise\, exclude and forget. Who remembers the tenant farmers\, who rebelled against the tollgates\, the Poor Laws and the Landowners in 19th Century Wales? Men\, dressed as women\, called themselves the Daughters of Rebecca (referencing Rebecca of biblical fame who talked about taking the gates of those who hate them) and destroyed toll-gates and attacked work-houses. The authorities called out the army was to quell the riots. This ‘official’ memory is still used as a weapon to attack the vulnerable\, the weak and the lost. From the smoky stacks of Merthyr…to a crumbling Manderlay. \nAbridged 0-101 ‘Rebecca’ invites poetry and/or art submissions on the conflicting themes of haunting\, convention\, repression and resistance. You may submit up to three poems to abridged@ymail.com which must be in a Word or PDF format. Unusually formatted poems we prefer in an PDF format\, material that is more straightforward in Word. Art should be in JPEG or similar format and at least 300dpi. Please note that this issue is A5 landscape shaped. Please also send a short bio and put your name and address on the email or it might get lost in the Spam folder. We can’t send proofs so please send the final version of your poem. The deadline for submissions is the 31st of May 2024. \n‘From the smoky stacks of Merthyr…to a crumbling Manderlay’ \nRebecca is in every picture we hang on our wall\, every shirt we slide from the hanger\,  every meal we lift to our mouths.

SUMMARY:P -  Call for Submissions to Rhino Poetry
DESCRIPTION:submission guidelines\nOur aesthetic: \nOur diverse group of editors looks for the best unpublished poems\, translations\, and flash fiction/nonfiction by local\, national\, and international writers. We welcome all styles of writing\, particularly that which is well-crafted\, uses language lovingly and surprisingly\, and feels daring or quietly powerful. \nNo Artificial Intelligence (AI) Content: \nWe do not accept any writing or translations created with AI software because our publication is an outlet for human creativity. If your work consciously and purposefully quotes lines generated by AI software\, as with an allusion to another text or publication\, you must cite your sources. \nHow and when to submit: \nWhile we do accept submissions via mail\, we strongly encourage you to submit via Submittable. Please submit only once during each reading period. All poetry accepted poems are automatically considered for our Editors’ Prize; we often award a Translation Prize as well. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow does RHINO work? \nEvery submission is reviewed by at least three editors\, any of whom can nominate a poem to be brought to our editorial table; there the poem is read aloud\, discussed\, and voted on by all the editors in attendance. Majority votes win; no editor has any more or less decision-making power than any other. \nOur tastes are deliberately eclectic\, and we value the dynamic discussions we have around our editorial table. We take a “step forward\, step back” approach to our discussions\, making sure that all editors’ voices are heard. \nWe build our journal poem by poem\, organizing it alphabetically by author’s last name\, letting the poems speak to each other as they wish to. That is\, we don’t seek out poems by theme or kind. We select poems on their own merits\, not by the reputation of the poet who submitted it to us. Every poem is a new beginning. Every poem is a fresh start. \nWe are curious about who submits to us\, and we hope everyone feels welcome and encouraged to submit. We are looking for ways to reflect more deeply on our editorial practices\, to stretch our own ideas of what excellence is\, and to challenge ourselves to read beyond our comfort zones. \nNone of our editors are paid for their work. We create this journal because we believe in it\, we believe in the work we publish\, and we believe in the importance of collaboration and artistic community. \nWhat to Send:  \n\n\n3-5 poems or flash fiction/nonfiction pieces (500 words or fewer)\, totaling no more than 5 pages \n\n\nA single\, typed document (.doc\, .docx\, or .pdf) \n\n\nUnpublished work only (We don’t accept any previously published work\, including work that has appeared online\, or work already planned for publication in a chapbook\, book\, or elsewhere.) \n\n\nA copy of the work in its original language if you are sending a translation; the translator is responsible for obtaining the author’s permission to use their material. \n\n\nYour best version. We can’t accept edits or revisions once you submit. \n\n\nWe do accept simultaneous submissions\, but trust that you will withdraw your poem or packet promptly if accepted elsewhere. \n\n\n\nUpon Publication: \nAccepted poets will receive one copy of the issue featuring their poem\, and the opportunity to purchase additional copies at a discount ($7 + shipping). Accepted poems will be published on the RHINO website at least one year after print publication.
