SUMMARY:PFN - Submissions for The Muleskinner Journal Fourteen are Open! Theme: Handle and Spout
DESCRIPTION:Let’s sing! \nOur theme for Journal Fourteen is \nHandle and Spout\nHere is my handle. My trucker name. The thing we hold onto. The thing the vandals broke. The it we take care of. Here be the agent\, the trainer\, the mechanic\, the event planner\, the bannister and the potholder. The people and things that make it happen\, or won’t let it happen. The neighbor who plows the snow when you need to get away. \nAnd here is my spout. My rant. My rap. My man-splaining. The device that lets us neatly pour the hot water over the tea bag without burning our hand or missing the cup. The thing that allows for the flow. And the flow itself. Hands-free and handle-free. \nFor Journal 14\, we embrace the idea that there are two kinds of people in the workplace\, in government\, and in your life – those who handle. And those who spout. We love them both. We also embrace the teapot\, the Neti pot\, and the melting pot. The handles and the handlers. The spout and the pour. Working Separately. Working together. Helping you quench and helping you breathe. \nFor Journal 14\, take any piece of this\, and send us your creation. \nWe’ll be pouring until June 15. \nWhat we are looking for…\nMuleskinner Journal accepts previously unpublished work only. Please use the following word counts to select a category to submit. Submit in only one category. Send no more than one submission per issue. \n\n\nPoetry: Any length or form. (1-3 pieces) \n\n\nFlash or Micro Fiction: max. 1000 words each (1-3 pieces) \n\n\nShort Story/excerpts from longer (previously unpublished) work: (max. 6000 words) Please include word count on first page \n\n\nCreative Nonfiction: (max. 3000 words) Please include word count on first page \n\n\nWe look for writing of all kinds that uses skill\, wit\, and determination to deliver the goods.  We accept and publish poetry\, short fiction\, flash fiction\, micro-fiction\, short scripts\, excerpts from longer works\, memoir\, criticism\, craft essays\, artwork\, journalism\, and shopping lists. \nWe don’t care who you are\, as long as you are the author of what you submit.

SUMMARY:N - Speculative Nonfiction Seeking Submissions for Issue #9 on the Theme: Promise
DESCRIPTION:Speculative Nonfiction #9: Promise \nThe theme for this issue is Promise. We look forward to reading your work about how you relate to this word:  \nConsider the promise as widely as you can imagine. Promises made\, promises lost\, promises broken\, promises never uttered\, promises made mute by time\, promises betrayed\, promises reaffirmed. \nPromise is one of the few words that has no direct opposite. It is not a Janus word\, meaning two things at once. You can break a promise like a locket\, but can a broken promise be repaired? \nThe Latin word for promise is promissum from “send forth” so ponder\, imagine\, explore and send forth your promising speculations. We eagerly await them. \nWriters’ Guidelines: In general\, we publish work of 2\,500 words or less. This is not a strict limit\, however we ask that writers only submit work that aligns with the theme of the issue and is speculative in nature. \nReading Period: We will be accepting submissions for Issue #9 through June 15\, 2025 \nNote on Submission Fee: Speculative Nonfiction waives the submission fee for writers who make a financial contribution (any amount) to either the NAACP Legal Defense Fund or The Movement for Black Lives. Please send donation receipts to speculativenonfiction@gmail.com. Thank you for supporting these organizations working to dismantle white supremacy. Additionally\, if\, for reasons of financial hardship\, you are unable to pay the $3 submission fee\, please contact us directly at speculativenonfiction@gmail.com to request a fee waiver.

SUMMARY:PFN - Wild Greens Seeking Submissions for the July Issue on the Theme of: Sweat
DESCRIPTION:Beach sun on a hot summer’s day. The pick-up kickball game at your local park. Some nerves that make your heart rate spike. Working out\, working hard\, the fear that something won’t work out. What makes you sweat? \nWild Greens accepts personal essays\, poetry\, short stories\, and cultural commentary. \n  \nPersonal essay: Submit one essay\, up to 2000 words. Written in a lively first-person voice about anything you are excited to tell readers. All essays should have an overall point or main idea that you want to get across. \n  \nPoetry: Submit up to 5 poems per issue. We adore poetry of any type or variety! Please submit poems in a single document\, and name the document with the title of the first poem and the author’s name. \n  \nShort fiction: Submit one piece of short fiction. Please keep fiction under 1000 words (or let us know if you have a longer work that you’d like serialized across several issues). Short fiction can be of any genre\, though it should in some way fit the theme of the issue for which you are submitting. \n  \nCultural commentary: Do you have an urgent or timely piece\, like a response to a cultural event? What about an untimely piece\, like a review of a TV show that you just binged but that technically came out 10 years ago? Whatever culture you’re consuming\, we want to hear about it. Commentary is welcome; please keep it under 2\,000 words. \nAll writing is reviewed by our editorial staff\, and we will request revisions before publishing your writing. We’re happy to work with you from whatever stage your writing is in\, but please proofread before hitting submit!
