Blag Issue 1
The Opening Chapter Blag is a new online literary and arts magazine. BLog + mAGazine= BLAG
The launch of the Blag is imminent and there will be information here when that happens
In the meantime the Blag is seeking submissions from potential contributors. The Blag is not a blog and so we are not looking for your usual blog posts. Everything that is published on the Blag must be very well-written and relevant.
Remember the Blag is not a blog so only selected submissions will be published. For example - 99% of the posts here on Skint Writer would not be acceptable.
If you’ve got the time, the energy and the inclination to write a NEW relevant article please contact Skint at blag AT skintwriter DOT com or use the contact form, linked from the top of the page.
Here are some submission guidelines and other info.
- Articles of any length will be considered, but we are aiming for articles of 500, 1000, or 1500 words
- Articles must be previously unpublished and must be the original work of the contributor
- Articles may be published on the contributor’s website or blog at the same time or after they are published on the Blag, but not before.
- Articles will be edited as deemed necessary by the editor.
- Articles may be on any topic that is relevant to literature and other art forms
- There is no payment at present, this may change if a way of generating sufficient income is found
- There will be some space on the Blag for original literary works but it will be limited, for example we may occasionally publish a poem or a short story.
- Example topics - interviews with authors, book reviews, truth and fiction, writing and politics, writing and reading online, podcasting, e-books, writers’ retreats, editing, revising, publishing online, financial implications of writing etc etc .
- The Opening Chapter Blag is sponsored by Opening Chapter Publishers
