SUMMARY:PFN - Rooted Literary Magazine Seeking Submissions on the Theme of: Rites
DESCRIPTION:☾ Rite ☽\n\n\n\n\nRites follow us through every stage of our lives. They appear as ceremonies\, festivals\, gatherings\, or private traditions—moments that connect us to ourselves\, to others\, and to something larger. \nWe mark rites of passage when we blow out birthday candles\, earn our driver’s license\, or endure heartbreak for the first time. Funerary rites help us say goodbye to those we’ve lost. Marital rites bind people together\, though they can be broken as swiftly as they are spoken. \nBut rites are not always comforting. Some are born of blood\, secrecy\, or sacrifice and are violent in nature as they bind us in ways we do not always choose. History is steeped in rituals of exclusion and control; rites are used to preserve power as much as they are used to celebrate life. \nFor October\, we invite you to explore Rite in all its forms: sacred or secular\, celebratory or unsettling\, personal or collective. What happens when a rite is denied\, disrupted\, or transformed? Explore the power that rituals hold over us when the candles burn low and we think no one is watching. \n\n\n\n\nWe accept pieces from each category to be featured in a special Halloween Anthology in the following categories:\n\n\nPoetry\nFiction\nNonfiction (Essays\, Reviews)\nCreative Nonfiction\n\n\nFormatting Guidelines\n\n\nFlash Fiction: 1000 words or less\nShort Stories: 5000 words or less\nPoetry: Up to 3 poems (2 pages max)\n\nNonfiction: 2000 words or less\n\nAll written work should be submitted as a PDF\, Word\, .docx\n\n\nAll submissions must be original and unpublished.\n\n\nOther Restrictions\n\n\nSimultaneous submissions are welcome\, but please let us know if it is accepted elsewhere by emailing info@stayrootedent.com\nAny work created entirely\, in part by\, or with the assistance of AI will be rejected.\nAll submitters must be 18 years or older at the time of submission.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPublication Rights\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFirst Electronic Publication Rights: You grant Rooted Literary Magazine exclusive rights to publish your work online for the first time\, whether in text\, image\, video\, or audio form. \n\n\n\n\nArchival Rights: After publication\, we may keep your work archived on our platform indefinitely. \nNon-Exclusive Rights: Following the initial publication\, you are free to submit the work elsewhere or republish it. \nPromotional Rights: We may use your work for promotional purposes (e.g.\, social media\, newsletters\, and website promotions) during and after publication\, with proper credit given. \nCompensation: Accepted contributors for digital anthologies will be paid a one-time stipend of $10.
