Before we know it, our appetites turn subliminal: to belong, to be, to ignite passion.<\/p>\n<p>Epicurean, sartorial or romantic, how many walls should you scale before your appetite is satiated? What belief systems take away your very right to have the appetite to eat, drink, wear, love, be? Which insatiable appetites leave you, or your character starving forever in silence?<\/p>\n<p>Only royalty had the right to the tender succulence of jackfruit, or to purple fabric. And isn\u2019t there that infamous historical anecdote of the suggestion to have cake instead of bread that led to a revolution?<\/p>\n<p>What revolutions are brewing in you? Give in to your appetite to resist, protest, unsilence \u2013 without restraint, without censorship. Gulp down this theme of appetite, allow it to reveal the hungers within you.<\/p>\n<p>And then, write to us with your stories, poems, and essays. We\u2019re waiting, famished, for your literary works.<\/p>\n<p><b>General Guidelines<\/b><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"clr\" href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/L4PwJ6Mf88YVzYek8\">Mandatory Contributor Form:<\/a>\u00a0Please fill this form for your submission to be read by the Editors.<\/p>\n<p><b>Submission Format:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Please include \u201cSUBMISSION\u201d along with the genre you are submitting for in the subject line of your email.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Kindly send all submissions in a Word File attached to the body of the email.
