arc 31: call for submissions

The 31st issue of our literary journal arc is currently open for submissions from writers who are citizens or residents of Israel.

The theme for arc 31 is “The Phoenix”

 

“The Phoenix” is a theme with a very broad canvas to explore::

• We are looking for poems that make us sit up and take note.
• We are looking for language that is innovative, striking and imaginative.
• We are looking for insight, courage; a step out of your comfort zone to explore experiences that are personal and characterize our zeitgeist.

The editor, Mike Stone, will consider original, unpublished poetry and short stories in English. You do not have to be a member of IAWE to submit your work.

Submission guidelines:

• Submit 1-3 poems no longer than 150 lines in all, or prose of no more than 1,500 words, together with your name and contact details all in a single file in Word format, and email to: iawearc31submissions@gmail.com
• Do not submit more than one file.
• Please use Times New Roman, font 12, single spacing for poems and double spacing for prose.
• Deadline is November 16, 2024.
• Please note: the Phoenix theme is entirely optional. Submissions may be off-theme.“.

Contributors retain copyright and may also republish. We ask only that you acknowledge that the poem or short story first appeared in arc 31. The editors are under no obligation to accept any particular submission, and their decision is final. The IAWE retains the non-exclusive right to republish content from arc 31 in any form.

At this time IAWE cannot pay authors for accepted works, but each contributor will receive a copy of arc 31.

 

We look forward to receiving your work,

 Mike Stone

 Editor of arc 31
