"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

We are publishing book reviews of newly released or forthcoming books.We are also interested in author interviews. Please don’t send us previously published work. We want work that will shake us up a bit. Work that will make us question our personal beliefs. Work that three days later will make us laugh once again. Submit here: gravel.submittable.com/submit.

 

About

This magazine is produced by the MFA program in creative writing at the University of Arkansas at Monticello editorial staff.

 

Guidelines:

We are presently accepting original, unpublished works (including posting it on any website blog, deviant art, anywhere it can be found on the web). In particular, we are interested in fiction and creative nonfiction anywhere from 25 to 2,500 words in length, poetry (no more than 3 poems per submission, and you can submit all of them at the same time on Submittable), photo essays, artwork, comics, video, hybrid—look, we’ve got eclectic tastes here. Don’t be afraid to submit works that defy form or genre. We cannot pay you, but if it makes you feel better, we’re not getting paid either.

If your work is accepted, we will request an image that represents you (you can interpret this however you’d like) to be included with your bio.

Please keep your images below 5 MB for bios and art submissions. If for some odd reason we need a larger image, we will contact you.

We do not reprint work published elsewhere, in any form, this includes work that has been published in print magazines, blogs, or anywhere online. It’s disheartening to publish something, then realize that it is posted somewhere else.

Please do not submit new work until after you hear from us regarding your first submission. If your work is accepted for publication, please wait 6 months before submitting again. We like to showcase as many writers and artists as possible.

We do not accept submissions from current UAM MFA students.

We don’t charge our readers a fee to submit, but we get charged after we have 300 submissions. It helps us if writers submit their submissions all at once, not separately, because that can increase our operations costs.

Special Wednesday Call for Submissions: Snapdragon, Art & Healing

I’ve been thinking a lot about Art & Healing lately ❤

Special Wednesday Call for Submissions

Snapdragon: A Journal of Art & Healing

Open July 1- July 31

Your Wild and Precious Life” Issue

Open for submissions for our 3rd issue due out in September! We publish previously published work so send us your new or old poems on the theme “your wild and precious life” (we love Mary Oliver). Spread the word! Thanks!”

About

Snapdragon: A Journal of Art & Healing aims to be the premier online literary journal for writers and all who are looking to creativity as a way to process and express the healing journey.

Whether experiencing or looking for physical, emotional, or spiritual healing, we hope this will be a place to which you come as you journey the luminous path to wholeness. AtSnapdragon Journal, in addition to poetry and creative nonfiction, we are now highlighting photography! Eventually, we will publish research articles and interviews of those doing this work in the field.

Why the Name?

We could not think of a better name for this journal other thanSnapdragon! At its deepest level, the Snapdragon flower essence helps the soul to distinguish its use of creative forces — especially those which radiate from the lower energy centers, and those which are used for spoken word. The Snapdragon flower is often used as a remedy to help persons — particularly those who experience extreme tension in the jaw and mouth — to re-direct their powerful metabolic energy into its rightful channels. By harmonizing the relationship between these energy centers, the soul evolves in its use of creative power. And so, with Snapdragon: A Journal of Art & Healing, our desire is to provide a platform for your self-expression and soul’s healing!”

Guidelines

“We’re using Submittable to receive your poetry, creative nonfiction and photography. We will only accept, via email, research papers on art and healing. All other submissions via email will not be accepted. Our Submittable link will go live the first of each month we are open for submissions (Jan., April, July, Oct.). See our themes and guidelines below. Also sign up for our mailing list to receive notifications. Thanks!”

We consider new and previously published work on the theme of healing (emotional, physical, spiritual, community, etc.).
