SUMMARY:PFN - Moss Piglet Zine Seeks Submissions on the Theme of "The Universe (and what lies beyond)"
DESCRIPTION:The Krazines  welcome submissions of prose and poetry for publication in its full-color\, monthly zine\, Moss Piglet.  Anyone of any age or talent level may contribute work (but please\, no politics.)  Each issue has a theme in place to jumpstart your imagination.  You may interpret these themes widely.\n\n\n\nOur theme is The Universe and Beyond  Let your imagination be your guide in interpreting this theme. You can use it literally to develop work in words which reflect current or historic studies of the cosmos. You can otherwise become the next Jules Verne\, Robert Heinlein\, or other sci-fi authors. You can deliver your own images and theories about the multi-verse. You can ponder our own Pale Blue Dot of Planet Earth. \nDEADLINE: Wednesday\, October 5\, 2022. Send to info@krazines.com. \nIf you are a contributor and would like to receive a printed copy of this next  issue\, cost is $10.00 plus postage. \nWe also have subscriptions available to all readers in the USA.  For those living outside of the United States\, we can customize a subscription package for you by contacting us at info@krazines.com.\n​\nFor our submission guidelines\, click HERE. \n\n\n\n\nSubmissions of Stories\, Essays & Poems\n\nPlease send text submissions in .doc\, .docx or PDF formats to info@krazines.com.  We are more apt to accept short works\, as our publication is digest-size\, but we don’t have a word limit.  Check out some of our past issues to get an idea on the style and length of written work that we have published. \nYou may provide multiple submissions\, but don’t go crazy. Someone has to read all of the stuff that comes across our desk. We’re OK with simultaneous submissions and previously published work. Just cite the place where your writing previously appeared. If you have a fancy title like Poet Laureate\, Writer-In-Residence\, or you have been knighted by the Queen\, we’d be happy to include that information in our publication right next to your name.

SUMMARY:PFN - About Place Journal Call for Submissions.  Theme: "Center of Gravity"
DESCRIPTION:Center of Gravity\nJustice is the center of gravity and resistance is how we get there. \nWhile the fight for social justice\, reproductive rights\, and the environment has been an ongoing struggle\, the present moment demands an even more urgent response to these grievous times. As James Baldwin reminds us\, “the role of the artist…is to illuminate that darkness [and] to make the world a more human dwelling place.” In this light\, we invite submissions of poetry and prose that explore the possibilities of resistance and collective democratic worldbuilding\, envisioning worlds in which achieving justice is a reality. \nWe are particularly interested in submissions that engage with the various centers of gravity concerning voting\, reproductive rights\, and trans rights\, making black lives matter\, healthcare\, inequality\, and their intersections with the environment and autonomy. In particular\, we ask how acts of resistance might rebuild our human and nonhuman dwelling places while creating resilient systems of authentic community. \nSubmission Guidelines\nAbout Place Journal is published twice a year\, in spring and fall. A new Call for Submissions is posted twice a year. Please review the current call and follow any specific genres called for in the upcoming is \nWork can include: \n\nPoetry/Lyric: up to 3 pieces which do not exceed 50 lines each. Acceptable file types include doc\, docx\, txt & rtf. (If your poetry submission contains special formatting\, we suggest submitting a PDF in addition to your Word doc).\nFiction\, essays\, creative nonfiction and other prose: up to 3 pieces which do not exceed 4000 words each. Acceptable file types include doc\, docx\, txt & rtf.\nIf your submission includes items from several genre categories\, the total number of submitted pieces cannot exceed 5.\n\nEach submission must be accompanied by a bio in doc\, docx\, txt or rtf format. Bios should be in the third person and not exceed 150 words. Please include your website and twitter handle\, if desired. \nBy submitting\, you guarantee you hold the rights to the work\, and you grant About Place Journal the rights to publish the submitted work with first serial rights (FNASR). After publication\, rights revert to the author. Original\, previously unpublished work only. All pieces must be submitted through Submittable.

SUMMARY:PFN - Fatal Flaw Literary Magazine Call for Submissions.  Theme:  "Embodiment"
DESCRIPTION:What does it feel like to have a body? How do we position our bodies in space\, in time\, in the context of the world around us and in juxtaposition with others? How do our bodies allow and disallow us to interact with and experience life? Where do our lived bodily experiences and the cultural meanings inscribed upon our bodies diverge? And what would happen without the body’s constraints\, enablements? \nThis submission call\, we are seeking works of EMBODIMENT. Works that tackle both the physical and the intangible trials and joys of possessing and being a body. \nSend us your incisive fiction\, your subversive missives\, and your palpable poetry. We can’t wait to experience it.

SUMMARY:PFN - Prachya Review Seeks Submissions With the Theme: "Eye of the Tiger"
DESCRIPTION:SUBMISSION GUIDELINES\n\nLet everything happen to you: beauty and terror.\nJust keep going. No feeling is final. \n~ Rainer Maria Rilke\, “Go to the Limits of Your Longing” \nAfter a little bit of break\, Prachya Review is coming back\, and we are now open to receiving your submissions of short stories and poems. Our chosen theme for the comeback: Eye of the Tiger.\nLife often offers us both: beauty and terror. Sometimes we let ourselves be open to it all\, and sometimes we are caught off guard. But we recover\, take a step back and fight back. Not just to survive\, but to live\, to feel alive. Prachya Review\, too\, took a step back\, took time away to restore and refocus. And now we return. We come back with a new website\, a new logo\, and a greater passion to serve the literary world through our magazine. In retrospect\, while we felt the brunt of burnout\, we realise that the world also suffered.\nGlobally we have faced a pandemic that took loved ones before their time and altered the course of our lives. Some of us have lost our jobs\, or had opportunities slip out of our hands. Some of us have suffered mentally from anxiety and depression. The journey has been painful and hard. But we have also risen above the rubbles of mayhem. Often stronger\, often more courageous.\nAnd this is where we come back to our theme. Where is the Eye of the Tiger in you? What does the phrase remind you of? Rocky\, or Katy Perry? Or do you have your own unique relationship to it?\nSubmit your stories and essays\, poems and artworks\, and tell us how you have survived in the midst of tragedy and boundless chaos. Tell us how you have changed in the past year\, and how the world has changed you. After all\, like Rilke says: no feeling is final.

SUMMARY:PFN - Prairie Fire Magazine Seeks Submissions on "The Peace We Make"
DESCRIPTION:With so much war and violence raging all over the world\, many feel utterly helpless. Pema Chödrön\, a Buddhist nun\, says that the origins of aggression and war reside in our hearts and that the way we respond to the challenges that face us can either build on that culture of violence\, or create a culture of kindness and compassion. \nPrairie Fire is seeking fiction\, poetry and creative non-fiction that looks at the depth of peace\, and the struggles that we’ve all had when it comes to creating peace instead of war. Creating peace within ourselves and with others is a journey\, what does your journey look like? When have you chosen peace as an act of rebellion\, found a moment of personal peace in a war zone (literally or figuratively)\, found inner peace despite the chaos\, made peace with a loved one\, made peace with an idea\, made peace with all the little battles that rage inside us every day of our lives. And\, perhaps peace\, no matter how hard you tried hasn’t come yet\, and you’re still waiting.

SUMMARY:PFN - Fatal Flaw Literary Magazine Call for Submissions. Theme: "Embodiment"
DESCRIPTION:What does it feel like to have a body? How do we position our bodies in space\, in time\, in the context of the world around us and in juxtaposition with others? How do our bodies allow and disallow us to interact with and experience life? Where do our lived bodily experiences and the cultural meanings inscribed upon our bodies diverge? And what would happen without the body’s constraints\, enablements? \nThis submission call\, we are seeking works of EMBODIMENT. Works that tackle both the physical and the intangible trials and joys of possessing and being a body. \nSend us your incisive fiction\, your subversive missives\, and your palpable poetry. We can’t wait to experience it.

SUMMARY:PFN - NonBinary Review Call for Submissions.  Theme: "Family"
DESCRIPTION:NonBinary Review is open for submissions on the theme of “family.” Just as each of us carries many identities within us\, each of us belongs to many families. There’s our family of origin\, often complicated and tumultuous\, that leaves an indelible impression on our physical selves (as powerfully expressed in the poetry of Philip Larkin). Some of us have foster or adoptive families that further complicated our childhood sense of ourselves in the world. There’s our family of choice\, those people we gather to us to be our support system as we grow and change. There are families of affinity: people with whom we share common interests or experiences. But those aren’t the sum total of possibility. \nWho are your family? How do you relate to them? How has family shaped your life and your responses to the world? What is the gulf between the family you need and the family you have? We want to know about your relationships and how they shaped you\, rather than hearing the story of your (no doubt wonderful) grandpa\, Auntie Bertha\, or Little Timmy. We want to hear about your accidental families\, your surprise families\, your fucked up families\, and the ways you have carved out a place in your life and heart for them\, or managed to build a much-needed barrier between you and them. \nAll submissions must have a clear relationship to our theme\, and be submitted (double-spaced for prose) in 12pt Times New Roman or they will be rejected. Submitters of poetry may include up to five poems per submission\, but each must be a separate file.  NonBinary Review  pays 1¢ per word for prose with a limit of 3000 words and a $10 flat fee for poetry.. \nTo submit Poetry\, use this link.  \nTo submit Prose\, use this link.
