We have decided to extend the deadline for submissions to May 1st. If you missed the chance to send us your work the first time around, you can email your submissions to us at [email protected].
We look forward to hearing from you and stay healthy and safe in the meantime!
The theme for our next issue is "Metamorphosis."
Life is a series of changes and transformations that range from good to bad, from sudden to slow, and can leave a lasting impact on others and ourselves. Metamorphosis can be a wonderful, magical experience that brings happiness, peace, and growth. Metamorphosis can be a dark and painful series of events for some, as well. These changes can relate to identity, nature, relationships, spirituality, and more. We’re interested in understanding what Metamorphosis means to you.
We accept all forms of art including poetry, fiction and nonfiction, interviews, book reviews, artwork, music, short films, and photography. Selected work will be included in Volume 7 of the Spring 2020 issue.
EXTENDED DEADLINE: May 1, 2020 (there is no fee to submit)!
