SUMMARY:NF - Call for Submissions to Root Quarterly. Theme: Glass Houses
DESCRIPTION:“People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.” It’s a phrase that evolved from Chaucer and on through the proverb mill\, with Benjamin Franklin and others taking turns at the wheel. It’s related to the idea that “those without sin should not cast the first stone” in that both convey a sense of needing to be self-aware about our own faults and vulnerabilities before we attack others. Though we live in a selfie culture\, we seem to have become correspondingly less self-aware. What can we do to pause\, and to reflect? What might help us in the process of regarding others as full human beings\, even when we may disagree with them? Why do we hate hypocrites so much? \nWHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR: \nFiction\, including experimental fiction and erotica\, is welcome. Please send pieces of 500 to 2\,000 words. \nPersonal essays or articles for our “Switchbacks” section that relate points of inflection in a person’s life that have taken them to an unexpected and new place. Please send full pieces for consideration. \nTONE & STYLE \nIt’s okay to have a distinctive voice! But we’re also looking for writers who will largely forgo snark\, condescension\, bullying\, point-scoring\, self-serving virtue signaling\, etc.\, and will instead try on for size some finesse\, awe\, grace\, wit\, and humility. It’s okay to have questions and not answers. Ideas and issues are complicated\, and they take time to unwind. \nWe’re also looking for people who aren’t afraid to write a piece even if people within their bubble might disagree with it. Two great examples are here in The Atlantic and here in Seattle’s Weekly\, The Stranger. Both are written by hardcore liberals who are willing to call on other liberals to be more rigorous with their arguments. \nBe wild\, be funny\, be weird\, be contrarian. The worst we can say is ‘no.’ \nCOMPENSATION \nThis is a volunteer-run project\, and it’s a barn-raising in every way. Printing bills are expensive. But we know your time is valuable and that art isn’t free. That’s why we’ve got a subscription-based model and we don’t give our content away online. \nWe typically give honorariums of $50 to $150 depending on the piece and its length\, as well as for artwork contributions that illustrate articles. Longer\, solicited profiles or articles will be compensated at 10 cents per word\, to be determined at the time we agree on a proposal and consult our current funds. If there’s a piece that absolutely needs to be written but would require more time and research\, we’re willing to look into grants that may fund the work; we are a fiscally-sponsored project of Cultureworks in Philadelphia\, and can accept tax-deductible contributions. \n*If you are suffering from financial hardship and can’t afford a single issue at $15\, you may send an email to editor@rootquarterly.com and we’ll work something out. \nHOW TO SUBMIT \nTake in all of the above\, do a little reading\, cozy up with an issue. \nThen you can send us an email keeping all those guidelines and principles in mind. If you’re sending a personal essay or cultural criticism and we haven’t worked with you before\, please send your full piece as a submission and a 75- to 100-word contributor bio. \nWe thank you in advance for considering joining our community.

SUMMARY:PFN - Bronze Bird Books Climate Change Anthology: Localized impacts of climate change
DESCRIPTION:Climate Change Anthology Submissions\n\n\n\nBronze Bird Books (www.bronzebirdbooks.com) is preparing a standalone anthology focused on climate change and related themes. We are especially interested in localized impacts. How has your community been affected by climate change? What might the future have in store for your region\, according to the modeling or changes you’ve witnessed firsthand? \n\nWe will be accepting submissions until August 15th\, 2024. \nOur objective is to view this high-stakes global issue through a personal and localized lens\, making the subject matter more relatable\, thus inspiring change initiatives. This anthology will primarily include poetry\, though we are also open to “cli-fi\,” essays\, or letters to future generations. Works addressing pollution or environmental degradation will also be considered. Beyond adverse impacts\, we’ll also consider literary works conveying a reverence for nature and sensitive ecologies. \nPublication Notes / FAQ: \n\nAugust 15th is the deadline for submissions.\nIf your submission is accepted for publication\, we will notify you by September 1st. If you haven’t heard from us by then\, consider it a pass. (Since email deliverability can be a complex ordeal with many variables\, we recommend that you periodically check your spam folder in case we don’t directly reach your inbox.)\nSubmitted work should not have been previously published; needless to say\, it should also be original\, true to your experience\, and not written entirely by a bot!\nWe generally prefer poetry without complicated formatting. Longer lines of poetry don’t always fit in our standard 6” x 9” trim size. If it’s a prose poem\, it’s OK. Otherwise\, anticipate that very long lines may spill over if you exceed 68 characters and consider rebalancing your line breaks.\nStories and essays for this collection should not exceed 2\,000 words.\nAll submitted works should have titles. We include a table of contents and need to refer to your work in some way.\nContributors grant First Publication Rights to the Bronze Bird Books climate change anthology. All rights revert to the author after publication. We will work to promote this collection and all contributors therein\, with bios and promotional links included at the end of the manuscript. All accepted contributors will receive a digital copy of the collection; the press does not have the resources to provide complimentary print copies.\nAfter you complete this Google Form\, you should receive a copy of your submission. That email copy may alter the appearance/formatting of your submission; however\, rest assured that we have received the text as you intended.
