The reading period for both the October, 2011 and the December, 2011 issues of Women in REDzine, is now open!!
Submit to Women in REDzine
This is an open call for ALL artists, writers, dancers, musicians, poets, photographers, journalists, breakers, rhymesayers, activists, video artists, capoeiristas, fire spinners, storytellers, world travelers, spoken word artists, and revolutionary thinkers. If you can make it creative, we want to see it, read it, hear it, or experience it...So SEND it.
Women in REDzine embraces all art forms. If you're unsure where to send your submission, write to us and enquire about how you should submit. We love getting mail! Women in REDzine does accept simultaneous submissions, however, in the event that the work is accepted for publication elsewhere, please do us the courtesy of informing us promptly. Only previously unpublished, wholly ORIGINAL works will be considered for publication.
Our reading period is currently open. Cover letters should include a word count and indicate whether the submission is fiction, nonfiction, or poetry.
Note: While other journals and magazines encourage writers to read their back issues to get a sense of what it is that they are looking for, and what they like to publish, we at Women in REDzine encourage you to read our back issues to get a feel of some of what we don't want; the previous aesthetic, while wonderful, is completely different from the one that we are now exploring and does not reflect the direction that we wish to go in...besides, it's never good to repeat yourself. We strive to be continually evolving and improving the magazine!
Instructions for prose submissions...
Please submit only one story, or essay, at a time. Multiple submissions may be overlooked/discarded. Include your full name, telephone number and email address in your cover letter, or the body of your email. Writing must be 4000 words, or less.
If you have a piece exceeding 4000 words, it may be submitted for publication on the website, unfortunately, we would not have sufficient space in our print issues to publish such a lengthy piece. We do our best to respond within four-six weeks, however, in some cases this period may be longer. If you have not received a response from us within two months, we will be happy to respond to your e-mail inquiries. We do ask that you please wait until you hear back from us before submitting new work for consideration.
Instructions for poetry submissions...
Please submit three poems, or less, per submission at a time. Multiple submissions may be overlooked/discarded. Include your full name, telephone number and email address in your cover letter, or the body of your email. The same maximum length of 4000 words still applies to poetry submissions.
If you have a poem that exceeds 4000 words, it may be submitted for publication on the website, unfortunately, we would not have sufficient space in our print issues to publish such a lengthy piece. We do our best to respond within four-six weeks, however, in some cases this period may be longer. If you have not received a response from us within two months, we will be happy to respond to your e-mail inquiries. We do ask that you please wait until you hear back from us before submitting new work for consideration.
