Dear Eve, Heartfelt thanks for your beautiful submissions! This is the first classified ad and I have no idea how long it will take to complete the anthology. I just know it is something I must do. It will likely be spring of 2010 before I make final decisions about submissions to be included.. Would you please consider passing these guidelines along to those in your circle of writer friends? with gratitude, Susie Beiman Has your mother died? An anthology about remembering our mothers after they have died seeks emotionally honest and compelling submissions that will resonate with the reader. Desired poems will cover the initial raw grief through time to poems that are more uplifting. The intent is not to dwell on death itself but rather to place it in loving perspective. From sad to angry, from tender to humorous, all will be considered. Content will deal with your mother’s life and/or your relationship with her. Through the writers’ varied experiences, readers will recognize themselves and be encouraged in knowing they are not alone. Prose poems and poetry max 100 lines. Short prose max 750 words. If previously published, please include reprint permission and literary credit. Send up to 5 submissions and brief bio. Payment: 1 free copy if accepted. Submit by Dec 1, 2009 in a 12-point, double spaced Word doc. to motherlosspoetry@gmail.com or mail to Mother Loss/Details, 8663 River Crossing Blvd., Indianapolis, IN 46240. ************************************ P.S> My GREAT nephew of the Miami Heat hooked me up with tickets last night to see them get whooped by MY great Atl. Hawks! Katt Williams was there, with his TINY self!!!!! Of course I was on Hawk TV & they asked me questions. Last question: "If a player sprained his ankle, what would you do?" Answer: "I would put Miami Heat on it!" ;-) |
