Themed mag editions...

[Macavity]

One of my favourite genre mags...

https://threedropspoetry.co.uk/submissi ... 8-special/

For Samhain, we want to see poetry, flash fiction and visual art involving the spookier side of folklore, mythology, and fairy tales – ghosts, demons, witches, superstitions, dark fairies – as well as autumn traditions and lore, anything involving the harvests and preparing for winter, and the festivals and feasts of Samhain, All Hallows/All Saints/All Souls themselves.

Deep Earth Collection 2: Furrows

We are looking for beautiful works exploring Furrows; fields and farming, working with (or against) the natural environment, traditional childhoods, countryside life and imagery around earth and growth are all interpretations of this theme we’d particularly like to see, and we will be selecting work for inclusion based on how well it relates to these themes. Work centred around other lifecycles, or features such as “furrowed brows” that use the imagery of a furrow outside of farming will also be considered, although we would prefer if these works contained some link to the natural world

Interesting, MacPhil! Do they like r&r at all, or do they prefer free verse?

Bw,

Well this is one they published back in Jan.
