Dear Colleagues:
I am pleased to announce the launch of a new online magazine. Please
take a look at it:
www.nativeliteratures.com
Its purpose and general submission guidelines are below. Please share
this information with as many people as you can. Much of the site is
open to the public. For those who wish to become members, there is a
premium subscription with an initial, first-year donation of $7 for
one month or $25 for a year (four issues) with full access to the core
content.
Native Literatures: Generations
Publishing literature of substance and consequence
Our Purpose
NLG is dedicated to providing a global forum for original works of
literature by writers from the indigenous nations of North America and
Hawaii. Our goal is to support writers in their endeavors by offering
a venue linking them with new audiences and potential publishers.
Moreover, our magazine is designed to generate funds to provide
financial support for writers through scholarships for their studies
or for specific writing projects.
NLG is a quarterly, with content accessible online for three months
with rights reverting to authors thereafter.
Submissions:
NLG is seeking original, unpublished works by writers from the
indigenous nations of North America and Hawaii. We publish in all
genres: poetry, fiction (short stories but also novel excerpts if
self-contained), creative nonfiction, drama and mixed-genre/media. We
are seeking works that extend this body of literature by avoiding
cliché and trite conventions through risk-taking and experimentation,
but also through distinctive and engaging voices, exciting and
innovative approaches. For full submission guidelines, please visit
our website. For information, contact info at nativeliteratures.com or
submissions at nativeliteratures.com
We also accept interviews and reviews, but we do not publish literary
criticism.
In our first issue: poems by kuualoha hoomanawanui, Kim Blaeser,
Eric Gansworth, Laura Tohe, and Carter Revard. Stories by: Carter
Revard, Lee Maracle, Geary Hobson, A.A. Carr and Philip H. Red Eagle.
Essays by: D.L. Birchfield and Diane Glancy
