SUMMARY:FN - Open Call to Griffith Review on the Theme: Best Dressed
DESCRIPTION:Griffith Review 90: Best Dressed \nNo matter how much or how little you care about what you wear\, your sartorial choices are inextricably stitched into your social\, cultural and personal identities. Clothing not only dictates how we define ourselves and relate to others – throughout history\, it’s also been a mode of expression\, resistance\, revolution and disruption. Put on your Sunday best for this edition of Griffith Review\, which goes behind the seams to unpick the many paradoxes of fashion. \nThings for you to note: \n* We’re looking for non-fiction and fiction that responds to the theme. \n* We want pieces that are no longer than 4\,000 words (they can\, of course\, be much shorter than this). \n* We’ll let you know the outcome of your submission within eight weeks of the call-out closing date. \nFull submissions only – no pitches\, please. \nSubmissions close: 11:59 pm AEST\, 18 May 2025 \nPublication date: November 2025

SUMMARY:PFN - The Literary Times Magazine Issue 06: "Forbidden"
DESCRIPTION:Theme for Issue VI: “Forbidden”\n\n\n\n\nForbidden (adjective): not allowed; banned or prohibited.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat does it mean for something to be forbidden? Is it an unspoken rule\, a law etched in stone\, or a quiet\, lingering fear that keeps us from crossing the line? Forbidden is the space between desire and denial\, between curiosity and consequence. It is the unseen boundary set by society\, morality\, or even the self—a barrier that tempts as much as it restricts. To forbid something is to give it power. The unspoken\, the hidden\, the unattainable—these are the things that haunt the mind\, that shape history and human nature alike. Love forbidden by culture or bloodlines. Knowledge kept under lock and key. Art deemed too dangerous. Words that must never be uttered. Places no one should enter. Thoughts one must not think. But who decides what is forbidden? And what happens when the forbidden is pursued\, uncovered\, broken? Does it lead to liberation or ruin\, enlightenment or chaos? In this issue\, we explore the boundaries drawn around us—by law\, by faith\, by fear—and the ones we are willing to cross\, no matter the cost. \n\n\n  \n\nSubmission Guidelines:\n\n\nWe accept submissions from writers of all levels\, but we prioritize polished and well-crafted works.\nSubmissions should be original and previously unpublished.\nSimultaneous submissions are accepted\, but please inform us at theliterarytimesmag@gmail.com if your work is accepted elsewhere.\nWe do not accept works containing; self-harm\, sexual content\, graphic violence\, Hate speech or discrimination towards any group\, religion or individual.\nAll written submissions should be in English\, formatted as a Word document or PDF.

SUMMARY:PFN - Instant Noodles Seeking Submissions on the Theme of: Sanctuary
DESCRIPTION:The Old Scratch Press team asks that all fiction/non-fiction pieces adhere to a word count of 1000 words or less. \nThe second theme for 2025 is SANCTUARY. “Start thinking now\,” says contributing editor Nadja Maril. \nWhat ideas does the word sanctuary evoke for you? Are you thinking about being rescued\, or offering rescue? Where do you find sanctuary? Where does the word take you? Try writing a story about yourself\, something you observed\, or something entirely imaginary. \nPlease don’t use AI to make your writing or your art. \nDo look at the magazine. We have unusual covers\, great writing and art\, and we always submit to Best of the Net. \nThis issue publishes AUGUST 1\, 2025. \nThere is no submission fee for authors\, and no cost for readers. All content will be publicly available within the INSTANT NOODLES website .https://instantnoodleslitmag.com/ \nAll work must be original and must belong to the author. Works that have been previously published will not be considered. Stories must be complete and self-contained (i.e.\, do not submit chapters of a larger work). NOTE: Accepted works will be published as submitted without editing; as such\, in addition to the originality of the work itself\, we are looking for manuscripts that are clean and press ready. Be sure to review your grammar\, spelling\, tenses\, proper punctuation\, and other general rules of the written word before hitting “Send.” \nPlease include a brief bio (0-200 words\, with links) to be included on the contributors’ page of the magazine if your work is chosen. Feel free to use AI to write\, edit\, or tighten up your bio. \nWe follow up each issue with a live Zoom reading!
