Splinter Generation Anthology

The Splinter Generation Continues: New Call for Submissions 

The Splinter Generation is currently accepting submissions from writers who were born between 1973 and 1993 for an ongoing online generational literary compilation. We are looking for the best poetry, creative nonfiction and fiction these writers have to offer. In particular, we're looking for work that captures what it is to be a member of our generation.

We have undertaken this project again because our generation -- and literature in general -- is facing a challenging moment in history. While the problems of the world may often seem insurmountable, we believe there is still power in literature. Our voices still matter and we intend to find the strongest voices of our generation. Many mainstream publishers no longer have the resources or the will to publish important, emerging writers. But we do. And we will, because this is a time when we need fresh literature to make sense of our world.
 
Whether you have previously published or not, we want to hear something fresh.

We know this may mean thinking outside of what "literature" has generally come to mean. Because we love writing, we are seeking work that is based on  the written word, but, in the spirit of our generation, the work may also (though it does not have to) use links, video, audio, or any other tools the internet has to offer. What we want is something powerful and something that embodies what it means to be a member of this generation. Send us work that will wrap us in a story while making us think deeply. In short, send us your best work that represents who you are and advances whatliterature can be online. 

Simultaneous Submissions are accepted and even encouraged. If you do submit simultaneously, please let us know immediately if you've been accepted elsewhere. Previously published work may be considered, but please let us know the details of the previous publication in a cover letter. 

Specifications:

Prose: Maximum 2500 words

Poetry: Maximum three poems, any length (besides epic)

Deadline: Rolling, but reading period closes November 1. We are publishing excellent work as we get it, so if you have something excellent that is ready, send it now!  Certain authors we publish before October 1st may be asked to read, either remotely or in person, at a reading series in Los Angeles this winter.

Please email submissions to splintergeneration@gmail.com with the genre (fiction, poetry or nonfiction) in the subject line. Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis.

Contributors Wanted for Bylines 2011

 
 
 


 

Details: http://www.bylinescalendar.com/guidelines.php

We are now accepting submissions for Bylines Writers Desk Calendar and we invite dedicated, serious writers who have been published and paid for their work to submit an entry. All genres and disciplines are welcome.

Submission Guidelines
We're looking for succinct personal stories about the writing life. The oh-wow success tales, the naked truth about what motivates you, the heartache of rejection, the toughest lessons, the joy and pain of freelancing. Humor is good, so is pathos. Please avoid routine, trite, ordinary stories. Read the many insightful submissions in the current Bylines and you'll see what we mean. We strongly urge you to read these entries so you understand what we're looking for.

The best way to see what we're looking for is to obtain a copy of Bylines
2009.
Writer's Bio
A few sentences about yourself. You're not dry and boring, so your bio
shouldn't be either. Give us your accomplishments but round out your profile so our
readers feel like they'd like to meet you for coffee. Or a beer.

Submission Length
The combined word count of your writing paragraph and bio should not exceed
300 words. We want room for your photo. However, don't send your photo yet.
We'll let you know if your submission has been chosen and request your picture
then.

Writer's Photo
If your submission is accepted, we will require a high resolution photograph.
You may send a digital image as long as the resolution is 300 dpi or higher.
If you do not have a high resolution digital image, please send us a quality
snap shot that we may use. Please note, your photograph will not be returned.
Do not send us your photo until you are notified that your submission has been
accepted for the calendar.

Submission Method
Send your submission via email in text, RTF or Microsoft Word format to:
info@bylinescalendar.com
Include your full name, address, phone number, email address and website in the body of your submission. Do not mail hard copies.
 

Fine Print
We reserve the right to edit submissions and bios chosen for Bylines but you will have the opportunity to approve any changes. Bylines has one-time use rights. Submissions and photographs will not be returned. We will accept previously published work; just let us know when and where it appeared. Writer agrees that pull quotes from their submission may be used on the Bylines web page, or in other marketing.

Writer Compensation
1. Exposure and promotion. Bylines is sold at bookstores nationwide and on the Internet. Your website and email address are listed in the calendar (with your permission), and we provide a link from our website to yours. If you're the outgoing type, we help arrange book signings at your local bookstore and/or interviews with your local media. We also send out hundreds of press releases.
2. You get one free calendar and discounts on additional purchases.

3. Money. It's only $5, but at least you can count us as a paying market.  Remember, this is a labor of love, a tribute to writers and a break-even project.

My Cat's Life
As many of you know this title was going to focus on the grieving and recovery process we humans go through after the loss of a beloved cat.

In its new form the book will focus on all the memorable ages and stages our cat’s lives. Starting with kittens, it will cover the prime years, aging cats, and finally the twilight and the end, when our dear friends leave us. We want to capture the experience of living through the natural life cycle with our cats.

My Dog's Life
As many of you know this title was going to focus on the grieving and recovery process we humans go through after the loss of a family dog.

Starting in puppyhood it will cover a range of middle years, senior dogs, and finally the twilight and the end, when our dear friends leave us. We want to capture the experience of living through the natural life cycle with our dogs.

We are looking for heartwarming, insightful, and humorous stories about raising babies and toddlers that share with our readers the wonders of early motherhood. We are also looking for stories about pregnancy and infertility issues. The deadline for story submissions is July 31, 2010.

Preteens
The preteen years – those years from nine to twelve can be rough from both a physical and emotional perspective. You are not a kid anymore but you are not yet a teen. There are so many issues to deal with and sometimes it feels like you are all alone. You are not!

We are looking for stories that will inspire you, make you laugh, make you think and let you know that life is not as bad as it might seem. The deadline date for story submissions is December 31, 2010.

Teens

The deadline date for story submissions is December 31, 2010.
