SPECIAL SUBMISSION DETAILS FOR THE EKPHRASIS ISSUE:

Our Fall Issue concentrates on Ekphrastic prose and poetry. Simply put, it is when a writer interprets a work of visual art and then creates a narrative in verse form that represents his or her reaction to that painting, photograph, sculpture or other artistic creation. A more detailed description on Ekphrasis and its origins is provided below.

We have 28 paintings available for writers to interpret. The works can be poems or short prose pieces (500 words). Go to the Ekphrasis link, select which painting(s) you wish to interpret; you can submit up to five works (they can be for one painting or five different ones) in total. Make sure when you submit your work, you correlate each piece to the number we have provided for each painting.

Please read and follow our “Standard Submission Guidelines” process as set forth below and become a part of another groundbreaking phati’tude issue!
