Deadline: 28 October 2012
580 Split is seeking submissions for its 15th issue. Submissions will be accepted through October 28, 2012. We welcome exemplary works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and visual art. Experimental work, international writers, and marginalized perspectives are highly encouraged.
THEMATIC DESCRIPTION: obsession
As writers and artists, we may best understand the moment when an initial interest teeters and tips over to a full-blown obsession. In many cases it is not something we see coming, much less something we can control. Standing outside of reason, obsession seems to be one of the main forces that drives artistic creation. We are looking for work that inquires into, is inspired by, or speaks directly to our theme.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
We use Submittable to manage all submissions. Please do not send any submissions via mail or email: they will not be considered.
Do not submit previously published work. We accept simultaneous submissions, however, please notify us immediately upon acceptance of your work elsewhere via the Submission Manager. All rights revert to the author(s) upon publication. Include your contact information in the separate box on the Submissions page. Please do not include contact information (name, address, etc.) in the file of your work. Unfortunately we cannot pay you for your work, but those accepted for publication will receive a free copy of the journal.
