SUMMARY:F - Myths\, Gods & Immortals Anthology Series Seeking Submissions about: Achilles
DESCRIPTION: Flame Tree are bringing you a brand new gorgeous hardcover series brimming with myths and short stories. \n  \nDiscover the mythology of humankind through its heroes\, characters\, gods and immortal figures. Myths\, Gods & Immortals brings together the new and the ancient\, familiar stories with a fresh and imaginative twist. Each book brings back to life a classic mythological or folkloric figure\, with completely new stories alongside the original tales. New and emerging writers from open submissions reveal hidden themes\, casting fresh perspectives on well-known stories\, alongside specially commissioned text on the origins and the cultural background of the mythology. The first four books in the series are Medusa\, Odin\, Circe and Anansi. We’re now opening up submissions for the next two books: Achilles and Morgana le Fay. \n  \n \n\nAchilles\nAchilles\, the great warrior of the Trojan War\, was considered the epitome of heroism in Greek mythology. His bravery in combat is famously depicted in Homer’s Iliad\, but every hero has their flaws. Authors from classical times all the way through to late Antiquity and the modern era have interpreted his character in a multitude of ways\, and this latest book will look at the man behind the myth. There is much to explore\, from his exploits in the war and interactions with Agamemnon\, Patroclus\, Hector and more\, back to his early days as an infant dipped into the River Styx\, exposing one vulnerable heel. Stories submitted for consideration need to explore new or expanded angles to the character: have him follow alternative paths\, present different viewpoints\, give deeper background\, or perhaps pursue story lines that are hinted at in the original tales and poetry. \nSubmissions to: Achilles@flametreepublishing.com \n  \nTerms:\n\nMultiple submissions are fine but must be in separate emails.\nSimultaneous submissions are fine but you must have the right to license your story in an anthology.\nFor accepted stories we pay Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) rates of 8 cents/6 pence per word for original stories\, 6 cents/4 pence for reprints.\nWe will aim to read each story and confirm its status within 4 months of the submission deadline.\nPayment for the chosen stories will be made within 30 days of the final advertised publication date (see our website flametreepublishing.com for details)\, although some may be paid earlier than that.\nSubmission does not imply the right to publication. Each story will be read and assessed by the selection panel.\nLet us know in your submission email whether your story would be a reprint or is currently unpublished.\n\nImportant Notice about Submissions and Guidelines\nWe’re always looking for better ways of working so we’ve tweaked our submission process to allow us to read more stories\, and spend more time assessing the balance of our books. So follow these rules to avoid your story getting lost in our system! \n\nSubmissions must use the dedicated email address.\nThe subject line of the email must be the story title.\nThe file with the story must be attached to the email (.docx\, .doc or .rtf format).\nThe name of the file must match the name in the subject line.\nIf submitting more than one story\, please submit one story per email.\n\nOther useful tips for a more successful submission:\n\n\nThe file name of the submission must be the story name only.\nPlease just use spaces between words in the title (not _ or – ).\nIf the story name starts with A or The\, please use it at the beginning of the file name.\nIf you’d like to add some details about the story\, confirm if it’s new or a reprint\, or add a short bio of yourself\, please add to the body of the email not as an attachment.\nStory length is most likely to be successful at 3\,000-4\,000 words\, but we will still read stories slightly outside this range.\nIf submitting a story that has recently been submitted to us for consideration to another anthology\, please state this in the submission email.\nDeadline for submissions is 22nd September 2024.\n\nThank you\, and good luck!

SUMMARY:P - Palette Poetry Rising Poet Prize
DESCRIPTION:Palette Poetry invites innovative work from emerging poets for The 2024 Rising Poet Prize. This contest is open to poets who have not yet published a full-length collection at the time of submission. We look forward to celebrating new and exciting work\, so please send us your best poems. The first-place winning poet will be awarded $3\,000\, publication\, and an interview in Palette Poetry. The second-place and third-place winners will receive $300 and $200\, respectively\, as well as publication. The top ten finalists will be selected by Palette editors\, and Guest Judge Morgan Parker will choose the three winners from among the ten finalists. \nMorgan Parker is the author of five books\, most recently the essay collection\, You Get What You Pay For. Previous titles include Who Put This Song On?\, a young adult novel; and the poetry collections Other People’s Comfort Keeps Me Up at Night\, There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyoncé\, and Magical Negro\, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award. Parker is the recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellowship\, winner of a Pushcart Prize\, and has been hailed by The New York Times as “a dynamic craftsperson” of “considerable consequence to American poetry.” She lives in Los Angeles with her dog\, Shirley. \nSubmission Guidelines: Please read carefully! \n\nFor this prize\, we are only accepting unpublished work from new and emerging poets: poets without a full-length collection published at the time of submission. Poets with no publication history are especially encouraged to submit. Poets with only chapbooks published are also eligible. Poets with self-published full-length collections\, however\, are ineligible.\nSubmissions are open internationally\, to any poet writing in English—inclusion of other languages is welcome\, as long as the poem is largely written in English.\nDO NOT INCLUDE your name or identifying information in the document OR submission title box.\nWe are only accepting unpublished work. If your poem has been published elsewhere\, even on a blog or on social media\, it is not eligible.\nWe accept simultaneous submissions—just please send us a note if your work is accepted for publication elsewhere.\nYour submission must be no more than three poems and under ten pages. Please submit all your poems in ONE document. Please begin each poem on a new page and include each poem’s individual title.\nWe do accept multiple submissions (of one to three poems apiece)\, but each submission will include the $20 reading fee.\nPlease include a brief cover letter in the cover letter box with your publication history\, if any. This is where you can include your name and/or bio! If you select the editorial feedback option\, this cover letter is also where you can name which poem you’d like feedback on. To safeguard our reading staff\, please include content warnings in the cover letter\, if applicable\, as well.\nReview our FAQ page for frequently asked questions.\nNOTE: If after submitting you notice an error in your submission\, please message us rather than withdrawing and resubmitting your submission. We can open it to editing once so you can correct the error.\nPalette Poetry does not accept AI-produced work.\nContest closes September 22\, 2024. Submitters will be notified of their submission status 8-12 weeks after the contest closing date.
