Submissions are open for our twelfth issue until September 1, publishing on Game One of the World Series.<\/p>\n
Fiction<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n We 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.<\/p>\n We 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.<\/p>\n Creative Nonfiction<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Creative Nonfiction at The Twin Bill is a place for experimental writing on the modern game. We\u2019re looking for contemporary storytellers who make us question our understanding of America\u2019s pastime.<\/p>\n There 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.<\/p>\n There is a $15 honorarium per accepted piece.<\/p>\n Poetry<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Please 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.<\/p>\n Guidelines<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n There 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 We are only interested in previously unpublished work.
