      Bone Bouquet Call for Submissions

      Suss contributor and official Lintel, Sash, & Sill Adventure Society member (twice means it's a thing now) Krystal Languell has started a new literary journal called Bone Bouquet. It'll be a biannual online journal appearing in January and June of 2010,with a print issue following in 2011. Their mission is pretty wonderful:

      We aim to highlight the important work of female poets, who are often underrepresented in the writing community and popular media. Rather than personal politics, our criteria are excellence and vibrance. Rather than segregating the poetry of ‘women’s issues’ from ‘regular’ creative work, our goal is to provide an additional arena in which female poets can make their work more visible to readers, building their reputations as artists.

      Right? Right. Now here's the call for submissions:

      Bone Bouquet seeks to publish the best new writing by female poets, from artists both established and emerging. We are especially interested in work that is unpredictable, poems that have both sass and authority.

      Please send up to 5 pages of poetry to bonebouquet at gmail dot com. Your work should appear as an .rtf attachment OR paste your work into the body of the email. Also include a short (50 word) biographical note.

      Simultaneous submissions are fine, as long as we are notified when work is accepted elsewhere. Bone Bouquet only accepts previously unpublished work; we request first electronic rights, and would like to archive your work on the site.  Please note that your work first appeared in Bone Bouquet if it is reprinted elsewhere on the web or in print.

      The reading period will remain open through October 15, 2009.

      Alright, all of you established and emerging female poets: get on it!
