SUMMARY:PFN - Periwinkle Pelican Lit Seeking Submissions for Issue Two. Theme: the truth is\, I want to want to live
DESCRIPTION:Want to submit? \n\nPerfect!

I have not yet been able to change them yet.​ \nPLEASE NOTE:  We do not accept email submissions\, UNLESS WE ASK FOR THEM. We have previously and will continue to use Google forms for each submission window\, which you will either find on this page or our Twitter when each submission window opens. We love the enthusiasm but tend to lose track of your work due to our high volume of emails! \nWe do not accept AI generated work of any kind. Period. Attempting to submit AI work will be an automatic rejection. The same goes for any kind of prejudice. We have a zero tolerance policy. \nPoetry: No more than five poems or ten pages. Keep all poems to one file.  \nFiction or Nonfiction: Up to 2\,000 words. (If you’re a little over we won’t  hold it against you.) \nCreative Nonfiction: Up to 2\,500 words please! But just like our fiction and nonfiction baddies we won’t hold it against you if you go a smidgeon over.  \nGeneral things that apply to everyone: \nSimultaneous submissions are okay! We allow reprints/republish pieces if you either retain the rights to your work OR with permission from the original publication. \nPlease do not include your phone number or address in your submissions. We may ask for an address later for mailing purposes if you have been accepted into print projects. \nYes\, we are still finishing the last few copies from issue one. Life has majorly gotten away from us. Thank you for being patient with us.

SUMMARY:PFN - Conjunctions Seeking Submissions to Issue 84. Theme: We Love All We Voices
DESCRIPTION:William Burroughs hypothesized that language is a virus from outer space. Agree or disagree\, language does inhabit us just as we inhabit it. Language represents—and is—imagination in action. It dances in an everyday state of evolution and is the shared invention of us all\, whether we love\, loathe\, or have never heard of each other. We treat words with great care or with abandon. We are reckless with language\, sloppy\, incoherent\, liars. But words are truths in themselves\, precious\, each one special\, incandescent. No matter whether we realize what daily miracles they are\, they will always survive us\, gifts we pass down the generations. We Love All We Voices celebrates the languages of poetry\, fiction\, essays\, in all their glory\, with works by some of our most pioneering writers. \nConjunctions has always been language-centric. In that spirit we are also featuring a special portfolio edited by Trinidadian-American novelist Robert Antoni\, in which vernacular writing is explored as an agent of its own authenticity—open\, malleable\, subversive\, aggressively multi\, overtly political\, plenty rude\, and alive. Nowhere have English-based vernaculars proliferated so vociferously as in the Western Hemisphere’s first melting pot\, the Caribbean. Writings from this far-flung diaspora\, as much or more than any other\, make melody central to their meaning. Glossaries and footnotes are out; this cognitive and acoustic work must be accomplished in context. Perhaps most challenging of all\, until fairly recently\, there were few models to follow. Now they accrue with a vengeance: here\, for instance.\n\nSubmitting to Conjunctions\nPRINT ISSUE \nWe will accept submissions for our spring 2025 print issue\, Conjunctions: 84\, We Love All We Voices\, via Submittable from November 27 – December 15\, 2024. All submissions will also be considered for our weekly online magazine. \nNote: If you miss the Submittable window\, we are also open for submissions by postal mail year-round. Please see below for instructions. \nONLINE MAGAZINE \nSubmissions are open year-round by postal mail for our biannual print issues and weekly online magazine\, which is not subject to thematic restrictions. Please see below for instructions.\n  \nHOW TO SUBMIT \nSubmissions are open year-round by postal mail. To submit via mail\, please send your manuscript to our editorial office (address below) with a brief cover letter including your name\, address\, and email. In order to receive a response\, you must include a self-addressed envelope stamped with sufficient postage for our reply and for return of your manuscript (if requested). Do not send submissions by any delivery method that requires a signature. \n\n\n\nAddress mail submissions to:\nBradford Morrow\, Editor\n\n\n\nConjunctions\n\n\n\n21 E 10th Street\, #3E\n\n\n\nNew York\, NY 10003\n\n\n\nWHAT TO SUBMIT \nConjunctions publishes short- and long-form fiction\, poetry\, creative nonfiction\, and hybrid texts. We do not publish academic essays or book reviews. \nAll submissions must be in English and previously unpublished. We will consider works in translation for which the translator has secured the rights. \nAlthough we have no official restrictions regarding word count\, most of the manuscripts we select for publication are under eight thousand words long. For poetry submissions\, we suggest sending half a dozen poems\, depending on length. \nWe strongly suggest that writers new to Conjunctions read our recent issues to acquaint themselves with our publications. Subscriptions are available here.
