What We’re Looking For
We are looking for writing, poetry, and art that feels like a car crash. We want stories that have been waiting to be told. Writing by people who wear too much eyeliner and listen to the Cure. We want gritty, anemic poetry and art that your bitchy art teacher wouldn’t hang up. We want grudges and bite marks and grandiose visions. Anything visceral is appreciated.
(Since we have yet to publish an issue, here are some more ‘concrete’ works for your inspiration and perusal: part of the CD liner from Thursday's Five Stories Falling, this Carrie Brownstein interview, 'Laura Palmer Graduates', a poem by Amy Woolard, and (content warning!) these stills from John Fawcett's 2001 film, Ginger Snaps.)
Both fiction and non-fiction prose should be 100-1500 words long. (A little over or under is fine!) Poetry is capped at three pages. Art can be any medium as long as it is your own original work and no copyright infringement is involved.
Please no sexism, homophobia, racism etc. It’s fine if you discuss these issues as someone who experiences them first-hand in your work, but please no glorification of the aforementioned.
