Unusual Calls for Submissions
LQQK Magazine is a new science fiction magazine currently looking for
new writers. We are interested in stories that speculate about the
future of contemporary phenomena like social networking, mobile
devices, filesharing, hacking, and online lifestyles. We are also
interested in far-out, surrealist, or anarchic stories in general,
with or without lulz. Full submission guidelines can be found here.
LPR Call for Submissions: Audacity Issue
Audacity defines the best and worst within us. It is boldness or daring, accompanied by confident or arrogant disregard for personal safety, conventional thought or other restrictions. It is also effrontery, insolence or shamelessness. Little Patuxent Review invites you to explore the various aspects of audacity for our Summer 2012 issue. Submit well-crafted poetry, prose, artwork or photography between December 1, 2011 and March 1, 2012 through our online submission system. See the guidelines on our website for details. Note: we consider artwork and photography on a rolling basis. Be bold, be daring. Be anything but boring. More here.
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS FOR A HOLIDAY ANTHOLOGY
Imagine your favorite holiday stories. Chances are good the protagonists are a man and a woman, possibly even with children. But where are the stories that feature men together, or women together, that will also warm our hearts at this special season? That’s where you come in. We’re collecting holiday stories for two anthologies, one featuring male protagonists/couples/families, the other featuring female protagonists/couples/families, and we’d like to hear from you! Your story should run between 2,000 and 4,000 words, contain no erotica, and be in a winter holiday setting. The only requirement is that it be historical fiction. We’re looking for tomorrow’s classics in time for next year’s holiday season! Pay will depend on securing a publisher and will be negotiated at that time for accepted stories. Deadline is June 15, 2012, but the earlier, the better. Send Word docs to Jeannette de Beauvoir E-mail: angevine(at)aya.yale.edu (replace (at) with @ in sending e-mail)
