Northern Mariana Island Writers Wanted for Anthology
Deadline: until filled

A quartet of local writers from the Northern Mariana Islands is accepting submissions for an upcoming anthology of local writers they are tentatively calling Stories from Wild Bills Cafe: Life, Love and Spicy Tofu in the Northern Mariana Islands. The book would be about 200 pages, which will probably fit about 15 -20 writers.

The editors of Wild Bills Café are Jane Mack, Joe Race, Jaime Vergara, and Villagomez.

The idea is to focus the attention on a physical place to ground all the stories. Saipan, Tinian and Rota are home to several dozen newspaper reporters, bloggers, novelists, poets and amateur writers. There are also a number of writers from the Northern Mariana Islands living and working abroad, but who write about home.

Writers interested in submitting work for the anthology can contact the editors at WildBillStories@gmail.com. Submission guidelines are available upon request. Writers whose work is chosen for submission will receive two copies of Stories from Wild Bills Café.
