PFN – Call for Submissions to Rough Cut Press. Theme: “Withhold”
We seek personal, political, precise, raw, lyrical, critical, and experimental work; the stuff only you can write.
Most events are installed on their deadline date, unless there is a long submission window or unless it's a rolling submission.

We seek personal, political, precise, raw, lyrical, critical, and experimental work; the stuff only you can write.
