Call for submissions: Corona Hopelings

April 2, 2020 Alina Rios

Hopelings are birds that live in the middle of your chest and feel things most acutely. Hopelings are migratory birds and travel regularly to Hope, no matter the distance. Corona hopelings are a mutated species of hopelings born out of response to coronavirus.

Send us your Corona Hopelings in the following formats:

  • words: fiction/non-fiction/poetry/monologues; 2 pages max

  • visual art: 1-3 images

  • audio: music or spoken word; 3 minutes max

  • video: dance, spoken word, music, surprise us; 3 minutes max

  • a combination of the above

We’ll publish a few pieces each week building out the Corona Hopelings issue of Bracken.

Rules:

  • free to submit

  • one submission per person

  • include everything you want us to see in one submission (ex: video and words)

  • for fiction/non-fiction/poetry, submit only unpublished work

  • original work only (you are the creator)

  • rolling subs, no deadline; we hope to publish first pieces next week

  • we’re sorry, we cannot afford to pay you. we’re getting no funding and are doing this simply to help uplift the spirits. we’re paying for our regular submissions to Issue VII.
