Holiday Half-Issue submissions are now closed. If you haven’t heard from us yet, don’t worry, you will. The issue itself will go live sometime in December.
Regular submissions remain closed until 2011. We’ll let you know all the details on that when the January issue goes up. It will most likely involve writing things and then sending those things to us.
Just a reminder that Holiday Half-Issue submissions are open until tomorrow at midnight! You’ve still got time to rock something awesome out! We’re looking for short, funny, winter/holiday stories. Christmas, Hannukah, New Year’s, abominable snowmen, the world’s largest slushball fight, that kind of thing. The half-issue will be released in the middle of December, just in time for whatever it is you’re celebrating.
Speaking of celebrating, Victor David Giron’s novel Sophomoric Philosophy was published today by Curbside Splendor and he couldn’t be more excited. You can find out more about the book — and order your copy — by clicking here.
Also released today was Shya Scanlon’s Forecast. Sure, he’s not actually associated with JDP in any way, but I met him at Monkeybicycle’s reading last month and he seems like a good guy. Also, the first sentence of the novel’s description is “The year is 2212, the weather is out of control, and Seattle is being rebuilt with electricity generated from negative human emotion.” If that doesn’t sound like something to be interested in, you might be reading the wrong magazine. You can find out more about Forecast at Flatmancrooked.
And since we’re just reminding the crap out of everything today, don’t forget that we here at Jersey Devil Press have our own books and our own magazine that need your love and money, too. Seriously, we’ll take either one.
Holiday Half-Issue submissions are now open, for one week, from today until November 17th. We’re looking for short, funny winter-themed stories. Christmas, Hannukah, New Year’s, abominable snowmen, the world’s largest slushball fight, that kind of thing. And, for this week only, we’ll even consider rhyming poetry. But only rhyming! We don’t know enough about poetry we can’t read in a sing-song manner.
Send your holiday submissions to submissions@jerseydevilpress.com with the words Holiday Submission in the subject line. The issue itself will go up sometime toward the middle of December.
