"This work is unlike any other, in its range of rich, conjuring imagery and its dexterity, its smart voice. Carroll-Hackett doesn’t spare us—but doesn’t save us—she draws a blueprint of power and class with her unflinching pivot: matter-of-fact and tender." —Jan Beatty

Friday Call for Submissions Bonus :-) Jellyfish Highway: Postindustrial Bioluminescence

 

Bonus Call for Submissions 🙂

Because I love that they want “postindustrial bioluminescence” 🙂

Jellyfish Highway is postindustrial bioluminescence, we’re abyssal gigantism. We are a press for work that floats and undulates and lingers and stings, literature that shines from the deepest blue.

We are on Twitter at @JHighwayPress. We will be announcing our first title soon. We are everywhere. We want all of your mind.

We want full-length books of fiction (novels, collections), poetry, or nonfiction. Also, we are looking for chapbook-like works to publish on an indeterminate schedule as ebooks and such.

Friday Call for Submissions Love! Rhino: General Reading Period

Friday Call for Submissions Love!

Rhino

About

The Poetry Forum/RHINO Poetry is a non-profit literary organization, primarily devoted to the publication of RHINO Poetry, an annual high-quality print journal featuring well-crafted, diverse poetry, flash fiction, and translations. While remaining committed to our print journal, beginning with the 2014 issue, all poems will be placed online throughout the year. We also feature audio versions of our poems.

RHINO Poetry occupies a niche somewhere between academia and the emerging poetry scene – devoted to creative work that tells stories, provokes thought, and pushes the boundaries in form and feeling – while connecting with our readers and audience.

We invite traditional or experimental work reflecting passion, originality, artistic conviction, and a love affair with language.  We encourage emerging and established writers throughout the United States and around the world. Submissions are read by multiple editors with various tastes, all looking for quality work. Sometimes we call ourselves “eclectic” in the best sense of the word. We are proud of the content and variety of each issue we publish.

Guidelines

“We are reading for general submissions: April 1 – August 31.

Founders’ Prize submissions are accepted September 1 – October 31. Reading Fee: $10

We accept one submission per each reading period.

We strongly prefer online submissions.

Our diverse group of editors looks for the very best in contemporary writing, and we have created a dynamic process of soliciting and reading new work by local, national, and international writers. We read for previously unpublished poems, translations, and flash-fiction.

We welcome all styles of poems, and look for work which is well-crafted, reflects passion, originality, engagement with contemporary culture, and a love affair with language. All entries considered for the Editors’ Prize.

Our basic editorial principle, however, is unwavering—we’re looking to publish the best work we can find.”

Friday Call for Submissions Love! Profane, A Print and Audio Journal

Friday Call for Submissions Love! 

Profane

About 

Profane is an annual print and audio journal featuring an eclectic mix of poetry, creative non-fiction, and fiction where they also record every poem and piece of prose they publish in the author’s own voice. We publish in the winter.

“We’re keen on celebrating writers who present us with challenging material. Writing that’s surprising or difficult, emotionally and/or intellectually, in even small, subtle ways, has the potential to leave readers different as a result. To possess that potential is our definition of “good writing.” And ultimately, good writing, whatever form it takes, is what we publish.”

Guidelines

Profane reads submissions year round through our submissions manager, and we read for free from March to August. Now open for submissions.

We don’t accept work that has been printed elsewhere. We do accept simultaneous submissions, but ask that you alert us promptly should your work be accepted in another journal.

One of the things that makes our journal unique is the focus we place on audio. All submissions should be text only. However, if we accept your work, we’ll record you reading your work aloud, and briefly interview you about it and your writing at large (5 to 10 minutes). This will be conducted in our studio over the phone, at your convenience.

Despite the audio feature, we only accept work that stands up to scrutiny on the page. We feel the audio adds texture to our journal, and that it makes for an even more exciting product for our contributors and readers to share. It also makes it easier to ingest and digest an entire issue in the midst of hectic schedules.

It may be helpful to you, before submitting, to check out our previous issues (back digital issues are free).

We acquire only first North American printing rights, and all other rights stay with the author.

We strive to have a quick turnaround time, responding inside a month, often much quicker.

While we cannot offer monetary payment at this time, all contributors will receive a contributor’s copy of the print edition, the audio edition, and the digital edition.
