Theme: Election 2024"},"content":{"rendered":"

Recognizing the importance of the upcoming presidential election, the winter issue of The Courtship of Winds will be a special Election Issue and will be published before the election. We are once again looking at a desperately important election in the fall.\u00a0 As a result we would be particularly interested in submissions for the next issue that touch in some way on the place we find ourselves in the U.S. trying to right a teetering democracy.\u00a0 As our situation is not unique in the world, writers and artists in other countries should feel free to submit work that speaks to the situations in their countries. Submissions should still be works of art, as opposed to simple diatribe. \u00a0Other than that, there are no narrow restrictions.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Courtship of Winds<\/span> publishes poetry, fiction, and essays. Please submit no more than six poems at a time. Please include a short, third-person bio with your submission. Please use Submittable for all submissions. Simultaneous submissions are fine, provided the author immediately withdraws any work accepted elsewhere. Please withdraw work only through Submittable, indicating in the “reason” field if you are withdrawing part or all of your submission. \u00a0Courtship<\/span> does not publish previously published work. \u00a0Authors retain all rights to their work. You should expect a response within six months. We regret that we cannot currently pay for accepted work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Poetry<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Submit up to 6 poems. \u00a0We are open to all subjects and styles.<\/p>\n

Fiction<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We are open to anything from\u00a0very short fiction (aka “flash fiction,” though we don’t love that term) to substantial short stories or excerpts from novels. \u00a0Length shouldn’t exceed 10,000 words as a rule.<\/p>\n

Non-Fiction<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We are interested in essays that offer insightful observations\u00a0of social, political or philosophical matters and which are written in an engaging, accessible style. \u00a0Sharp, concise literary analysis, reportage, and travel writing\u00a0are also welcome. Length should generally not exceed 10,000 words.<\/p>\n

It goes without saying that we are looking to publish the best work.\u00a0 Some sense of the editorial philosophy behind\u00a0Courtship<\/span>\u00a0can be gained by reading the \u201cEditor\u2019s Desk\u201d page. \u00a0We are interested in publishing \u201cunknowns,\u201d as well as well-established writers.\u00a0 A writer who has published absolutely nothing will be read the same way as a prize-winning \u201cname\u201d writer.\u00a0\u00a0 Work that does something not seen before or, more to the point, makes us see differently\u00a0\u2014 call it avant-garde, experimental, or what you like \u2014 is always welcome.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
