For our August 2024 edition, the theme is CIRCUS

Abridged 0-101 ‘Rebecca’ invites poetry submissions on the conflicting themes of haunting, convention, repression and resistance.

Poets, get your collections ready!

We welcome work from both new and established writers, and especially encourage submissions from writers yet to publish a first collection.

We want your poems and your mistakes. Fiction that falls between genres. Weird, wild poems. Anything speculative, daring, or just plain odd.

We have no definitive preference for what are looking for, we enjoy a variety of genres and styles and consider anything.

Six contributors will be nominated for a Pushcart Prize, (poetry and fiction).

We welcome all styles of writing, particularly that which is well-crafted, uses language lovingly and surprisingly, and feels daring or quietly powerful.

We celebrate the rich history of baseball while also recognizing its vibrant present through fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry.

We want to hear about crafts, construction, repairs, destruction, recipes, art and inventions (time machines included, working or not).

Come to the table. July is all about food. The meals we’ve made, the tables we’ve shared, the way food has impacted your life. Eating is universal, sharing a meal is universal, how does it factor into your story?

Parabola gathers the wisdom of the world’s spiritual traditions to illuminate the central questions of life.

Submissions are restricted to women and gender non-conforming people.

The name Superpresent conveys multiple meanings. It could be something very much in the here and now, or something beyond the present state of being or thinking, or something surreal, or it could simply be a great and wonderful gift.

Ghosts, wraiths, specters. Poltergeists, phantoms, shades. They manifest in many shapes and dispositions in our lives and the literatures of all cultures. Sometimes a ghostly haunting is metaphoric; often it is literal.

You may be inspired to create work based on the literal or metaphorical meanings of dance. You might be inspired by a favorite dancer, their moves, their life, or their words. Let your imagination dance.

Our summer anthology focuses on themes of nostaliga and memory, and the things that connect us across time, space and history. We want your summertime vacation memories. a first kiss at sunset. the existential musings as you stare up at a midsummer meteor shower.

In our second annual Summer digital collection, we are looking for beautiful works exploring nature in all its glory! We are particularly looking for work exploring the beauty and wonder of nature, celebrating summer, or natural things that you have an intimate connection to.
