Issue 9 Call for Submissions
In Issue 9, we are exploring the dual themes of “Scarcity” and “Rarity.”
Ideas we would love to see explored include:
Imagine the last apple ever to be eaten on Earth. Describe it to the final bite.
What moments and places do you find sacred in your life, and how do you keep them dear even as time and change winnows them away?
The first snowfall, spring flower, ripe summer fruit, falling crimson leaf—why are they a marvel?
A pearl has a grit of dirt at the heart. What gives something its value? What takes it away?
How does the worth of water change for humanity as global warming wreaks havoc on potable supplies and climate stability?
Explore how scarcity and rarity turn the commonplace into treasure.
One hour. That’s all you have left—how will you spend it, and with who?
We accept fiction, nonfiction, visual art, and poetry of all flavors, from free verse to found. We are also interested in submissions that include raven artwork.
Submissions will be accepted until Dec 6th, 2018.
