Sequestrum’s Call for Optimistic Fiction, Nonfiction, Poetry

Yes, we know how un-literary optimism sounds. But after the last year, we think a little dose of “good” is long overdue. To be clear, we aren’t looking for any sickly-sweet submissions. We’ll pass on Chicken Soup/thirty-five pages about the power of a child’s imagination. We want tense, imaginative, literary-quality writing that doesn’t end with gout/the sun being a dried-out prune. That’s all. Quality writing means original, challenging writing.

Deadline: April 15.

Find details on our Optimism submissions here:www.sequestrum.org/themed-submissions-optimism.

Please ensure that all submissions are of publication standard (i.e., not 1^st/2^nd raw drafts). This is not our day paying job, therefore do not have the spare time to line edit every piece.

Multiple submissions welcome (within reason), though simultaneous submissions not so much.

Reprints considered, but you must be able to show full ownership.

No real hard & fast themes — all publications will be on a ‘First Filled – First Published’ basis.

As we are self-financing, the payment isn’t great. However, it is payment on acceptance, rather than payment on publication. Payment is via PayPal, and a One Time Use Licence agreement.

Publication will be via IngramSpark and Amazon so as to cover as wide a distribution set as possible – based on 1 x paperback, and 1 x ebook – and artwork 1x paper cover, 1 x ebook cover, 1x thumbnail for website.

For more details see our website at https://www.murderousinkpress.co.uk/crimeucopia.html

The Sunflower Collective: Call for submissions (Rolling — all round the year)

The Sunflower Collective is looking for submissions. We celebrate the personal and the political — which we believe to be one and the same thing — in art. We would like to mention at the outset that we are not interested in art that does not take risks. We do not mind if you have a degree but we are unlikely to be impressed by it. Nor do we care which journals have published your work before. All we are interested in is something that sings for itself without any props, something that grabs us by our throat and refuses to let go, something that shakes us out of our complacent stupor. Give us something hungry, not bellyful; something beat, if you get our drift. We express our inability to publish anything that propagates either left-wing or right-wing fascism.

Please send us your poems, prose, artwork and photographs in the body of the mail at thesunflowercollectiveindia@gmail.com with the subject line mentioning your genre of Submissions. Do read the submission guidelines before sending your work.

Submission Guidelines:

1) Poetry: 1-5 poems (Around 5 pages of poetry in total)
2) Prose: 2000-3000 words ( Fiction/ Non Fiction/ Experimental/Memoirs)
3) Art work and Photographs/ Photo Essays (5-10 in JPEG format and must not exceed 250K in size )
4) Format: Poetry and Prose submissions to be sent in the body of the mail, unless there are specific formatting requirements from the author (Needs to be mentioned in the mail). Photos and scanned Artwork in zipped folders. Photo essays in MS Word with zipped folders of JPEG images separately attached.

Please send us your work in a single mail only.
