SUMMARY:P - Free the Verse: Poetry Magazine Seeking Poems on the Theme: Flower
DESCRIPTION:We are now accepting submissions for our Autumn issue. While the theme and title of this issue is ‘Flower’ we encourage you to interpret it creatively. \nOur favourite poems are the unexpected kind. We love free verse poems that take familiar situations and turn them on their head\, using unusual metaphors and drawing parallels no one else would see. Poems with a sense of place and story are always welcome\, as are experimental pieces. You can read our latest issue\, Hot Water\, to get a sense of the poetry we publish. \nThe deadline for this issue is September 3rd\, 2024. Please read our general submission guidelines below before sending us your work: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease submit up to 3 poems per issue\, in one submission. If you wish to submit more\, our poetry competition (prize $100) allows unlimited entries. \n\n\n‘Flower’ is the title of the issue\, and therefore should not be the title of your poem. \n\n\nYour work must be original and unpublished\, either in print on online. We will accept work that has appeared on your personal website or equivalent. \n\n\nPlease include a brief third-person bio with your submission\, up to a maximum of 50 words. You are welcome to include details of previous publications\, but this will have no impact on whether your poems will be selected for our magazine. \n\n\nAt this time\, we only accept poems written in English. You are welcome to include words and phrases from other languages. \n\n\nIt is free to submit your work. At present we do not offer compensation to our authors. If your work is accepted for publication\, it will be published in our digital magazine. \n\n\nWe accept simultaneous submissions. If one of your poems is accepted for publication elsewhere\, please let us know immediately via our withdrawal form. \n\n\nYou must be over 18 years old to submit.

SUMMARY:PFN - Call for Submissions to Moss Piglet Zine. Theme: Moby Dick

SUMMARY:F - Call for Submissions to Stone's Throw. Theme: Legenda
DESCRIPTION:Stone’s Throw will open for submissions the first three days of every month\, from 12AM on the first through 12AM on the fourth (with some wiggle room here and there to account for the editors being human). We’re looking for all the same dark fiction\, crime\, and noir as our usual submissions\, but with a target length between 1\,000 and 2\,000 words\, and aligned with the monthly submissions prompt (see below). We’ll read through each story\, choose the one story that shines brightest\, and publish it online the following month\, paying $25 per accepted story. \nAfter a year\, we’ll collect all twelve stories into a Stone’s Throw Annual Anthology\, to be published alongside our other print issues. \nPLEASE NOTE — If you have been accepted within the calendar year for Stone’s Throw\, you are ineligible to submit again during that same calendar year. However\, we look forward to reading your submissions during our regular RHP Magazine open calls! \nOCTOBER SUBMISSIONS (opens September 1 – 4\, 2024) — we’re about to get spooky and crime-ful.  \nEvery town has a legend of a haunted place\, and in most cases\, those legends and haunted places involve a crime. This month\, we want stories about legends\, real or imagined\, the crimes that inspired them\, and the way those legends affect those living in their shadows. Make it dark. Make it gothic. Make it undeniably Stone’s Throw.

SUMMARY:PFN - Call for Submissions to The Twin Bill. Theme: World Series
DESCRIPTION:Submissions are open for our twelfth issue until September 1\, publishing on Game One of the World Series. \nFiction \nWe are interested in short stories up to 5\,000 words. Anything we deem significantly over the word count will not be read out of respect for the number of submissions our editors receive. \nWe are looking for writing that displays a strong personal style and a connection to the game of baseball. Most of all\, we are excited by stories that situate baseball in a broader context\, beyond the action of an individual game or at-bat. The more surprising connection to baseball\, the better. There is a $25 honorarium per short story. \nCreative Nonfiction \nCreative Nonfiction at The Twin Bill is a place for experimental writing on the modern game. We’re looking for contemporary storytellers who make us question our understanding of America’s pastime. \nThere are no formal requirements or word count\, but we urge writers to consider their stories carefully and to use not a word more than strictly necessary. \nThere is a $15 honorarium per accepted piece. \nPoetry \nPlease send up to five poems per issue. We love baseball from all eras but would particularly like to see poems of a more contemporary style or subject matter. There is a $10 honorarium per poem. \nGuidelines \nThere is a $3 submission fee. Writers retain all rights to their work. Please send all written submissions as a Word doc along with a short bio and any social media you want us to plug. We are only interested in previously unpublished work. Simultaneous submissions are fine\, but please let us know if it is accepted elsewhere. Send any questions or ideas to scott@thetwinbill.com. We would love to hear from you.

SUMMARY:P - Green Ink Poetry Seeking Submissions Using Kennings
DESCRIPTION:Equinox Collections: Kennings\n\nWe are looking for beautiful poems utilising Kennings; a compound that employs figurative language in place of a more concrete single-word noun. There are no specific themes for this collection beyond our general desire for work dealing with nature and the natural world\, although we would be particularly interested in any poems that take the historical use of kennings into account. The Lost Words and The Lost Spells by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris are excellent examples of our approach to this collection. \nSubmission Details\n\n\nLength Limits: We cannot accept poems that are longer than an A4 page. \n\n\nFormat Limits: Blocks – Unfortunately\, neither our print or digital publications are able to properly display poems formatted as a block. \n\n\nMax Number of Poems: 3 – Whilst we love reading all of the work sent to us\, we’ve found that a hard limit on the number of poems sent per submission means we’re better able to give everyone the time and consideration they deserve. This means that any extra poems sent to us will be disregarded. \n\n\nCredit: Please include a short third-person bio in your submission\, including any personal social media handles or other links you would like to have listed. Previously published poems will be considered for inclusion\, but must come with full attribution. \n\n\nContent Exclusions: Work of an overtly sexual nature\, or that promotes any form of hatred\, racism\, sexism\, or other expressions of intolerance will not be considered. \n\n\nWhere To Send Submissions: Submit your work by emailing us at editors@greeninkpoetry.co.uk – Please ensure that the email subject line includes “Kennings”. \n\n\nSubmission Format: Please send your submissions formatted as a word document or PDF attached to an email\, or in the body of the email itself.

SUMMARY:PFN - Exposed Brick Literary Magazine Seeking Submissions on the Theme of Duality
DESCRIPTION:THEME: DUALITY \nFor this issue\, we are drawn to the concept of duality. How can a thing seemingly hold more than itself? What opposing elements exist within nature? Within ourselves?

Duality allows us freedom to explore beyond the surface. \nWe are excited to see your creative take on this theme.\n\nWHAT ARE WE ACCEPTING?\n– Ages: all (minors with parent/guardian consent)\n– Writing: essays\, poems\, prose (no longer than 3 pages) \nFILE TYPE\n– Writing: word documents\, google doc \nTRANSLATIONS\nWe are open to writing in any language.

SUMMARY:PFN - Call for Submissions to Rose Books Reader. Theme: Primal Scream
DESCRIPTION:Call for Submissions:\nRose Books is now open for prose submissions for our first Rose Books Reader\, entitled “Primal Scream”—a printed collection of work by writers who inspire us. In particular\, we are looking for prose that explores characters or narrators somehow on the edge or on the brink\, in chrysalis or transition\, in various states of emergency or desire\, struggling to cope with the realities of our contemporary world in real or surreal ways\, with some success or no success at all. We’re looking for an engagement with emotional extremes or environmental collapse or feelings of bodily entrapment; work that is desperate\, unhinged\, hallucinatory\, hormonal. In keeping with Rose Books’ mission—“we believe in taking risks for the sake of beauty”—we’re particularly keen on work that takes risks in either theme or style. \nWe are less interested in coming-of-age in NYC stories\, vanilla relationship problems\, or self-created ennui from being very online. \nPlease keep submissions to less than 3\,000 words—we are open to previously unpublished stories\, essays\, flash fiction\, and prose poetry. Simultaneous submissions are okay\, please just let us know if your work is accepted elsewhere. \nUnfortunately\, we are not able to offer compensation for submissions at this time\, but contributors will receive a copy of the Reader and we will promote your writing and publicize the Reader in every way we can. \nPlease email submissions in a Word doc (12 pt. font\, Times New Roman\, double spaced) with a brief bio to rosebooksreader [at] gmail [dot] com. The submissions window will close on September 10\, 2024.

SUMMARY:N - Hinterland Magazine: "Journeys" Special Issue: Nonfiction Open Call
DESCRIPTION:Hinterland Magazine is pleased to be open once again for submissions for a special issue on the subject of “Journeys” to be published in Late 2024. Based on the Oxford English Dictionary’s definition of “travel: to make a journey of some length”\, we are looking for creative non-fiction that redefines travel writing. Surprise and amaze us with your work about journeys and voyages through places\, spaces and time by 23.59 GMT on 13th September 2024. \nAt Hinterland we are committed to publishing the best in creative non-fiction from around the globe. We are always thrilled to feature work from established\, well-known authors but have a particular interest in discovering new voices and in pieces that sit outside the usual categories: we ask only that it be a work of non-fiction. \n\nSubmissions should be made via Submittable only (see below).\nBefore you submit\, we strongly recommend purchasing a copy of Hinterland in order to get a feel for the range and style of nonfiction that we publish (www.hinterlandnonfiction.com/shop).\nAll work should be new\, previously unpublished material.\nWe accept simultaneous submissions. If your work is accepted elsewhere\, kindly let us know.\nFor our Non-fiction Open Call\, we accept work between 1251-5000 words. We also accept extracts from longer works\, or works in progress; please ensure the extract works as a stand-alone piece. If you have a short piece of between 500-1250 words\, please submit this through our Flash Non-fiction Call.\nPlease submit your work in a legible 12pt font and double-spaced.\nYour work will be considered for all upcoming issues; it might help you to know that we operate a 4- to 5-month editorial lead time.\nWe typically pay £100 for a long-form article\, or £25 for shorter articles and contributions to our regular features.\nWe charge a small readers’ fee of £3 for all submissions. Please get in touch with us if this fee presents a hardship for whatever reason. Subscribers can submit their work to us for free.\nPlease do not submit the same piece to multiple calls. We will always consider a piece for all open calls\, where appropriate.\nWe regret that\, due to the number of submissions received\, we cannot provide feedback.\nIf you have had a piece published with us recently\, please wait 9 months after publication before submitting to us again.

SUMMARY:PFN - Call for Submissions to Writing Heights Anthology Series. Theme: Love
DESCRIPTION:Love is a universal theme in music\, literature\, pop culture\, philosophy\, biology\, politics\, and government. Romantic love is but one tiny piece of that puzzle. A child’s love for their stuffed animal\, an immigrant’s love for their new home\, or the nostalgic love for a childhood best friend: each a form of love. \nThe ancient Greeks divided love into many types in order to better understand the concept. Ancient Greek philosophy focused on \n\nAgape: charity or universal love\nEros: romantic\, passionate love\nPhilia: affectionate regard or friendship\nPhilautia: compassionate self-love\nStorge: instinctual familial love\nXenia: hospitality\, “guest-friendship”\n\nLove\, in all its forms\, can be both inclusive and divisive. It can build consensus or tear away the fabric of a community. Love conjures images of joy\, happiness\, and satiety… but also loss\, despair\, and indifference. Love can be freeing\, constraining\, or punishing. \nWhatever your experience of love\, it is a powerful force to be reckoned with. Submit your short fiction\, narrative nonfiction\, and poetry exploring love as it resonates with you in any of its many forms. \nNote: This anthology is intended for general readers. Erotica\, rape scenes\, or gratuitous violence are prohibited. Limited sex\, violence\, and profanity are permissible as long as it suits the story. It cannot feel gratuitous or be included for shock value. Submissions intended for children or middle grade readers will not be accepted. \nSubmission Guidelines \nBlind Submissions: Because we judge all submissions blindly\, submitted files MUST NOT contain any identifying information about the author. Including your name\, address\, email or any other personal information in the file will result in immediate disqualification. \nLength: Short fiction and creative nonfiction/memoir submissions should be a maximum of 5000 words. Poetry submissions can be up to 3 poems contained in a single file with a maximum of 10 pages. \nFile Format: Submit all files as a Word .doc or .docx file. The file name should contain the title of the piece (or first poem) only. All pieces should be in Times New Roman\, 12 point font. Contact the anthology coordinator at anthology@writingheights.com for exemptions. Poets may also submit\, via email\, a .pdf of their poems to indicate preferred formatting. Bear in mind that the final printed page in the book will not match an 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. \nEditing: While accepted pieces will undergo an editing process\, all submissions should be edited and proofread prior to submission. \nMultiple Submissions: Multiple submissions accepted\, but only two submissions per writer. \nSimultaneous Submissions: Please no simultaneous submissions. \nOriginal Work: We are looking for original\, unpublished work only. Previously published work will not be accepted. \nSubmission Fee: $15/entry \nPayment: Accepted pieces will receive a $50 payment

SUMMARY:F - 53-Word Story Contest. Theme: A Set
DESCRIPTION:Image by Alex Green\, licensed through Pexels \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Prompt for September: Are you ready? Picture this: your fingers in place over the keys\, the blank-page backdrop is waiting for your story. What words will you collect there? Do you already know what you want to write? Will it follow the rules? Which way will all the words flow? It’s time to put them down. \nWrite a 53-word story about a set \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe winner for September will receive a free copy of What Dwells between the Lines: Fifty-Three 53-Word Story Contest Winners Plus Tips on Writing Remarkably Brief Fiction\, and their story will appear on this page for the month of October and will be published in Issue 269 of Prime Number Magazine on January 1\, 2025. \nPlease read our guidelines carefully\nNO ATTACHMENTS\, PLEASE!\nPaste your story in the body of your email to 53wordstory@gmail.com\nHINT: Each month\, when we offer a new prompt\, we introduce it with a short 53-word description that suggests several ways you might consider the prompt. Even the photo can offer a different way to look at it. What are we looking for? A story that surprises us in its approach to the prompt\, something unusual and creative. The first idea that pops into your head probably popped into the heads of others too\, so you might want to take another look at how your story can be different. Challenge yourself to find an unusual way to write a 53-word story about the prompt\, and don’t think you have to use the prompt in your story\, literally; implying the word works too. Surprise us! That’s what we are looking for. \nHere’s how to enter (please read our guidelines carefully before sending us your story): \n–Your story must be 53 words—no more\, no less—titles are not included in the word count. Stories with fewer than or more than 53 words will be disqualified. Send only stories; poetry with line breaks will not be considered.\n–There is no age limit. This is a FREE contest\, so there is no age restriction.\n–Be careful of word count. Hyphenated words count as one word.\n–Titles are not included in the word count. If your story is not titled\, we will create a title for publication.\n–One submission per person. ‘Nough said.\n–NO ATTACHMENTS! Paste your story into the body of your email. Stories sent as attachments\, or images embedded in the email\, will not be considered.\n–By entering this contest the author grants Press 53 First Serial Rights to publish the story in Prime Number Magazine and to archive it permanently on our website. All other rights remain with the author.\n–Email your story directly to 53wordstory@gmail.com by the 15th  day of the month\, midnight Eastern Time. NO ATTACHMENTS\, PLEASE! \nOur judges for the 53-Word Story Contest are the editors of Press 53 and Prime Number Magazine. Our winner for this month’s contest will receive a free book from Press 53\, and the winning story will appear here on the 53-Word Story Contest page for the entirety of the month following the contest\, and will also be published\, along with the author’s *photo and 53-word bio\, in the next issue of Prime Number Magazine. \n(*we will request your photo and 53-word bio if your story is our winner\, so be prepared!)

SUMMARY:PF - Ink Sweat & Tears Seeking Submissions on the Theme: (Re)place
DESCRIPTION:Submission Guidelines\nWhat to Send\nSend your submission of\, ideally\, no more and no less than 4-6 pieces of poetry (or 1-2 short prose/flash fiction works) and include YOUR NAME in the subject line. [please cut and paste email address and add it to your address book – it’s a spam avoidance technique] We ONLY accept submissions by email. \nWhile nothing is sacred – and we will consider ‘political/current affairs’ contributions – we do reserve the right to reject any submission we feel is deliberately offensive or actionable. \nSorry\, we do not pay for submissions – we have no money. \nFormat\nYour submissions can be within the body of the email or as pasted into a single Word document. If you are sending a graphic\, including haiga\, then PDF and JPEG files are fine. \nDue to the vagaries of WordPress\, we are also asking for pdf or jpg submissions (as well as in doc format) of all concrete poetry. Please use a sans serif format. We use Didact Gothic on the site which can be downloaded for free but Trebuchet MS and other similar san serif fonts are also acceptable. Font size should be 10 pt. (We may ask you to adjust this as we are still working out the best way to feature concrete poetry.) \nPlease note the maximum word length we will publish is 750 words. \nWhen it comes to Word + Image poems\, please see our previously published work to check if your piece fits the criteria. Ekphrastic poetry does not count as Word + Image. \nAbout You\nPlease include a short biographical note about yourself in the THIRD PERSON\, 30-to-40 words max.  You may include links to publications or your blog or your website. Max 2 links. \nOnce we have accepted your work\, please do not send us edits or biography updates unless we have asked for them. This is very time-consuming and very difficult to keep track of. \nCopyright\nPlease DO NOT submit work that includes copyright material (such as pictures) belonging to other people/third parties unless you can supply us with written authorisation by that person/third party. \nAs the author you retain full copyright in your work. By submitting a piece of prose or poetry to us\, you are merely granting IS&T a non-exclusive right (or ‘bare licence’) to reproduce your work. \nNo Simultaneous Submissions\, Please\nNo simultaneous submissions please (and that includes work also being submitted to competitions) if only because it causes us unnecessary kerfuffle when\, having accepted a piece\, the author then gets it accepted elsewhere and wants to unsubmit it to us – or else even asks us to delete from the webzine a piece we have already published. \nImportant: Please note that\, because of the number of submissions we receive\, we can no longer accept work that has been previously published or is about to be published elsewhere; this includes personal blogs and Facebook. If\, after accepting or publishing a work on IS&T\, we find it published elsewhere on an earlier date\, we will remove it from our web site. (We would also be very grateful if you could keep from posting your works elsewhere after IS&T publication\, at least until we have decided on our Pick of the Month shortlist for the relevant month.)
The ‘not previously published’ criteria does not apply to Filmpoems or work submitted for our National Poetry Day or 12 Days of Christmas features.

SUMMARY:N - Friends Journal Seeking Submissions for the December Issue on: Spiritual Optimism vs Spiritual Pessimism
DESCRIPTION:One of the greatest spiritual divides we see these days doesn’t seem to be theological or even political but related to our enthusiasm for the future. Is climate change hurtling us to an unlivable planet and extinction of humanity or are we in the beginning stages of a new age of sustainability? Is democracy advancing across the world with isolated backlashes or is an authoritarian future turning the screws on us? The last 50 years have brought us undeniable advances in race relations\, more mainstream LGBTQ+ acceptance than we might ever have imagined\, and improved health and environmental standards yet there is plenty to be worried about. \nHow do we balance out spiritual optimism vs. spiritual pessimism? How do Friends in the 2020s look at the future? \nFeatures run 1200-2500 words.

SUMMARY:PFN - Usawa Literary Review Seeking Submissions on: Faʻafafine or Gender & Its Discontents
DESCRIPTION:Usawa: Call for Submissions – December 2024 Issue \n\n\n\n\nGENDER AND ITS DISCONTENTS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhotograph by: Ryan Stowers\nFa’afafine\nTaken in Faleapuna at a road side shop \nFaʻafafine (translated: “in the manner of a woman”) are natal males who align with a third gender or gender role in Samoa. \n\n\n\n\nFor its December 2024 Issue\, Usawa Literary Review invites contributions in form of poetry\, short fiction\, reviews\, interviews\, essays\, creative nonfiction\, queer auto-fiction\, (and any other genre-bending genre which queers the concept of genres)\, around the theme\,  ‘Gender & Its Discontents ’. \nGender is perhaps one of the most naturalised\, and hence problematic of strands which make our social identities. When intersected with class\, caste\, or sexual orientation\, gender can provide us with immense social and cultural capital\, or conversely\, become the reason that such positions are denied to us\, violently\, deliberately. In Amrita Mahale’s novel\, Milk Teeth (2018)\, we witness Kartik Kinni\, a privileged\, upper caste male lead a shameful\, double life as closeted homosexual frequenting railway toilets to have sex. The Pink Chaddi Campaign\, a nonviolent protest campaign launched in 2009\, by the Consortium of Pub-going\, Loose and Forward Women\, entailed women from all over India sending pink underwear (chaddis) to offices of an ultra-conservative\, right-wing group which had\, on and around Valentine’s Day\, resorted to moral policing and violence against pub-going couples (especially women). In the Bollywood film\, Chandigarh Kare Aashqui (2021)\, we see how the heroine’s revelation that she is a post-op transwoman causes anxieties in her alpha-male\, gym-trainer lover\, and reveals him to be homophobic. Gender also serves as the naturalized pathway to normalcy\, a position of dominance\, or a source of existential angst and never-ending struggles for recognition – depending on where in the myriad\, multi-layered hierarchies we find ourselves.      \nFor our December Issue\, we solicit submissions across categories\, which interrogate what gender means to us; how it intersects with class\, caste\, and sexuality to influence our lived realities; how different forms of kinship relations emanate from and support different gender configurations and vice versa; how individuals – males\, females\, intersex – irrespective of their sexual orientation\, resist\, and consolidate their gendered selves; how the hegemony of heteronormativity structures modern cultural discourse\, as well as our own ideas of personhood\, and the ways we can and do resist this. \nFeel free to rummage through your memories\, parse popular culture\, reflect on contemporary socio-political developments\, and critique through your fiction\, poetry\, essays\, interviews\, and reviews\, those gendered structures which make the world around you\, which make you\, you\, and how these can be challenged\, subverted\, consolidated\, and written. \nWe look forward to your submissions. \nOur submission process has changed. We now accept submissions only through our website. Please familiarise yourself with the updated submission process and do NOT hesitate to ask for help at info@usawa.in or social@usawa.in \nDeadline: 20 September 2024 \nWe pay our contributors \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGeneral Guidelines \nUsawa Contributor Registration: Please fill the form for each submission. All submissions except visual narratives will be made through the form. \nSubmission Format: \nAll submissions apart from visual narratives are to be made through the form. Please follow the instructions attached to ensure that your submission reaches us. \nCompose your brief (~80 words) bio in the third person at the end of your submission. Please ensure to include your photograph and social media handles. \nPayment Policy: \nAs of December 2023\, Usawa has become a paying market. \nSubmission Limitations: \nYou may submit up to one entry for each genre during a given submission period. \nAlthough we prefer exclusive submissions\, we understand if you choose to make simultaneous submissions. In such cases\, please promptly notify us if another publication accepts your piece before our review. To withdraw your submission\, kindly contact the sectional editor and the Managing Editor by email. \nPlease be aware that any work published in Usawa cannot be reprinted in any other publication\, whether online or in print\, until six months after the initial publishing date. After this period\, we request that you send us a formal intimation and credit Usawa wherever the piece is republished by contacting our Managing Editor. \nSection Guidelines \nPoetry:  \nPlease submit 4-6 poems. \nUsawa will be publishing unpublished poems only. However\, poems that have been shared on the author’s social media are acceptable. \nIf you have previously published work that strongly resonates with our theme kindly share the same with our Poetry Editor\, Babitha Marina Justin\, at babitha@usawa.in stating why you would like the piece to be considered. The body of editors will review it collectively and take a decision accordingly. \nShort Fiction: \nSubmit short fiction of length between 2000-5000 words. \nWhile our primary focus is on literary fiction that explores the depth and complexity of the human experience\, we are also open to exceptional works of genre fiction that push boundaries and offer fresh perspectives. Bring us stories with emotional depth\, vivid characterization\, and inventive storytelling. \nOur Fiction Editor\, Kinshuk Gupta\, can be reached at kinshuk@usawa.in for queries. \nNonfiction:  \nSubmit nonfiction of length up to 5000 words. \nWe are looking for pieces that reflect honesty of the experience\, personal or from the point of witness. What are you subverting? Why? Send us well-crafted writings\, especially essays\, or even hybrid pieces\, in a way that we look at the world anew even though the facts remain the same. We’re most excited by not only reading about things little known or talked about\, but also by pieces that subvert and surprise. \nOur Nonfiction Editor\, Smita Sahay\, can be reached at smita@usawa.in for queries.

SUMMARY:F - Myths\, Gods & Immortals Anthology Series Seeking Submissions about: Achilles
DESCRIPTION: Flame Tree are bringing you a brand new gorgeous hardcover series brimming with myths and short stories. \n  \nDiscover the mythology of humankind through its heroes\, characters\, gods and immortal figures. Myths\, Gods & Immortals brings together the new and the ancient\, familiar stories with a fresh and imaginative twist. Each book brings back to life a classic mythological or folkloric figure\, with completely new stories alongside the original tales. New and emerging writers from open submissions reveal hidden themes\, casting fresh perspectives on well-known stories\, alongside specially commissioned text on the origins and the cultural background of the mythology. The first four books in the series are Medusa\, Odin\, Circe and Anansi. We’re now opening up submissions for the next two books: Achilles and Morgana le Fay. \n  \n \n\nAchilles\nAchilles\, the great warrior of the Trojan War\, was considered the epitome of heroism in Greek mythology. His bravery in combat is famously depicted in Homer’s Iliad\, but every hero has their flaws. Authors from classical times all the way through to late Antiquity and the modern era have interpreted his character in a multitude of ways\, and this latest book will look at the man behind the myth. There is much to explore\, from his exploits in the war and interactions with Agamemnon\, Patroclus\, Hector and more\, back to his early days as an infant dipped into the River Styx\, exposing one vulnerable heel. Stories submitted for consideration need to explore new or expanded angles to the character: have him follow alternative paths\, present different viewpoints\, give deeper background\, or perhaps pursue story lines that are hinted at in the original tales and poetry. \nSubmissions to: Achilles@flametreepublishing.com \n  \nTerms:\n\nMultiple submissions are fine but must be in separate emails.\nSimultaneous submissions are fine but you must have the right to license your story in an anthology.\nFor accepted stories we pay Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) rates of 8 cents/6 pence per word for original stories\, 6 cents/4 pence for reprints.\nWe will aim to read each story and confirm its status within 4 months of the submission deadline.\nPayment for the chosen stories will be made within 30 days of the final advertised publication date (see our website flametreepublishing.com for details)\, although some may be paid earlier than that.\nSubmission does not imply the right to publication. Each story will be read and assessed by the selection panel.\nLet us know in your submission email whether your story would be a reprint or is currently unpublished.\n\nImportant Notice about Submissions and Guidelines\nWe’re always looking for better ways of working so we’ve tweaked our submission process to allow us to read more stories\, and spend more time assessing the balance of our books. So follow these rules to avoid your story getting lost in our system! \n\nSubmissions must use the dedicated email address.\nThe subject line of the email must be the story title.\nThe file with the story must be attached to the email (.docx\, .doc or .rtf format).\nThe name of the file must match the name in the subject line.\nIf submitting more than one story\, please submit one story per email.\n\nOther useful tips for a more successful submission:\n\n\nThe file name of the submission must be the story name only.\nPlease just use spaces between words in the title (not _ or – ).\nIf the story name starts with A or The\, please use it at the beginning of the file name.\nIf you’d like to add some details about the story\, confirm if it’s new or a reprint\, or add a short bio of yourself\, please add to the body of the email not as an attachment.\nStory length is most likely to be successful at 3\,000-4\,000 words\, but we will still read stories slightly outside this range.\nIf submitting a story that has recently been submitted to us for consideration to another anthology\, please state this in the submission email.\nDeadline for submissions is 22nd September 2024.\n\nThank you\, and good luck!

SUMMARY:F - Raconteur Press Anthology Series Seeking Coffee Stories
DESCRIPTION:Coffee Stories Volume 2 \nBecause we KNOW how many of us drink the stuff—we’re going to need TWO volumes of this one. The perfect cuppa joe. The nectar of the gods. The safety liquid you hand your partner in the morning. We love the stuff\, and can’t get enough. But how did we FIND that flavorful bean? We invite our authors to visit our favorite coffee merchant\, King Harv’s Coffee\, and pick a variety from his amazing list. Then write a fantastical story about the detective work\, the journey\, the adventure of finding the oh-so-perfect plant. Don’t limit yourself to this planet! OR SF! Sword and Sorcery works too! \nFrom Dave at King Harv’s Coffee: It all began when we took over the dome at the old South Pole station for the use as a coffee greenhouse.  As you undoubtedly well know\, the coffee was banned from world trade to by that ridiculous Antarctic treaty\, and it became clear to us that coffee grown on alternate planets and celestial objects was the only thing that made economic sense. Shockingly this has never been reported on in the main stream media!\nContracts: 10/12/24\nPublication: 11/08/24 \nGuidelines for all our anthologies: \n5\,000 to 8\,000 words. Length and genre are negotiable\, as long as the story fits the concept\, and is entertaining. Any submission must be in Times New Roman (preferred\, but you can use Georgian or other readable font)\, 12PT\, double spaced\, with your name\, title of the story\, and your email on it. Name the file as [STORYTITLE]-[YOURLASTNAME]—[ANTHOLOGYTITLE]. Send it in a .docx format as an attachment—no links. \nRaconteur Press will hold the rights for one year after publication\, after one year the rights will revert to the author\, but we continue to pay you as long as the anthology is selling. Authors receive an equal percentage share of the proceeds from the anthology\, along with the Press\, our editors\, and administration. Yes\, you read that right. We don’t take 80% off the top and split the 20% left over between all the authors. We’re all in this together. This is why our anthologies are limited to ten stories. \nRaconteur Press uses Pubshare (pubshare.com) to distribute payments and handle tax forms for anthology authors\, so authors who contribute must have a free pubshare account. \nIMPORTANT: when you set up your Pubshare account you MUST choose the method by which you want to receive your royalties. There are currently two choices: PayPal at the beginning of each month\, or paper cheque each quarter. BE SURE that you have chosen a method of payment and input the required information. If you don’t Pubshare will hang on to your royalties until you choose and method of payment and input the required information. \nSubmit to: racpresssubmissions[at]gmail.com

SUMMARY:PFN - Call for Submissions to The Woolf. Theme: Animal
DESCRIPTION:Love\, fight\, fear\, hunt\, tame or release it into the wild – Animal is the prompt for Issue 7. Send us your most excellent (<2500 words)\, but please\, no cruelty to animals…and\, come to think of it\, no wolves. \nSubmission Guidelines \n\nWe only accept original\, unpublished work. If your work has already appeared in The Woolf\, please wait two issues before submitting again.\nOnly work sent through the official submission platform will be considered.\nNo name or identifying information should appear on the piece you’re submitting (we review the work blind).\nSimultaneous submissions are encouraged\, but please withdraw your work pronto if it has been accepted elsewhere (and if so\, congrats!).\nSubmissions are and will remain free. While submitting\, you’re welcome to toss something into our tip jar to help us offset expenses – it’s always appreciated.\nWhile we can’t pay contributors at this time\, we promise to promote your pieces once the issue goes live and nominate the best work for international awards where we can. (In fact\, this micro from Issue 1 was selected for the Best Microfiction 2022 anthology.)\nDespite our name\, any reference to wolves or Virginia Woolf could raise our hackles – so proceed with caution.\nFinally\, please don’t send us work that makes us question our faith in this already fragile world – stuff that’s gratuitously sexual\, overly violent\, discriminatory\, vile or just kind of morally repugnant. And since we apparently have to spell this out: no animal cruelty.\n\nCreative nonfiction <2500 words\nShort fiction <2500 words\nFlash fiction <100 words\, up to 3 pieces in one document\nMicrofiction <100 words\, up to 3 pieces in one document\nProse poetry <300 words\n\n\n\n\nRights and terms  \n\nBy submitting your work\, you grant us first electronic rights and non-exclusive archival rights. After first publication\, you retain ownership rights. If your work later appears elsewhere\, we’d love a credit for the first publication.\nSmall editorial adjustments to accepted submissions may be made in the name of clarity and flow. For more significant changes\, the author will be contacted. All other editorial decisions\, including art direction\, are the domain of The Woolf and final.\nWe reserve the right to remove contributions from the website without notice.

SUMMARY:P - The Passionfruit Poetry Prize 2024
