Dear beloved Pseudonauts, We hope you missed us during our unannounced hiatus. We are coming back, but in a different format this time. We are open for submissions starting right now, probably for quite some time. And the selected pieces of art, prose, poetry, photography, and art would be published as stand-alone features on the magazine instead of being attached to a specific issue. Here are your guidelines: Fiction - 1500 to 3000 words Creative non-fiction - 2000 to 3000 words Art - 3 to 10 pieces Poetry - (we haven’t figured out how to guideline poetry, you send us what you wrote) Photography - 5 to 10 images Although most of our social media is pathetically english, we do accept submissions in English as well as Marathi and Hindi. Please send textual stuff as a word document and visual stuff as jpg attachments. The body of the email should include your artist/author bio (3-5 sentences, in the third person). We only consider previously UNpublished (that includes social media and your personal blog) work. Send your work to contact.pseudomag@gmail.com Please wait for at least twenty days until your hear from us. We unfortunately cannot promise to reply to work that is not selected, neither do we provide feedback for unselected works. We love reading and experiencing all kinds of art and word witchery you send to us. If your work doesn’t gets selected, forget us. Keep putting what you think is good art out in the world. Be kind to each other and to yourself. We hope you’re still wearing that helmet on the road, and are keeping your soul hydrated. #literarymagazine #litmag #submissionguidelines #callingallwriters #callingallartists #writers #artists #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #fiction #poetry #art #creativenonfiction #prose
May all books make us feel the way Manto made Tanvi feel #worldbookday #literature #manto #bookstagram #bookgram #books
