 <\/p>\n

We invite writers to contribute their short and longer fictions to CultureCult\u2019s upcoming anthology, \u201cMono No Aware<\/strong>\u201c<\/p>\n

\u201cMono no aware<\/strong>\u201d is a Japanese term that captures the deep awareness of the transient nature of life and beauty, evoking a gentle sadness at their passing. It is the bittersweet realization that all things are fleeting, and it invites us to appreciate the ephemeral moments that make life beautiful. Stories in this anthology should resonate with the theme of transience, evoking the delicate beauty found in moments that are destined to fade.<\/p>\n

THE FINAL DATE OF SUBMISSION IS JULY 21, 2024<\/p>\n
