“Fiction With A Strong Sense Of Place”

By

Writers, listen up: I’ve got a pretty cool call for submissions for you.

Fiddleblack, a small press and literary journal, is seeking fiction and nonfiction submissions for its digital winter issue and 2012 print annual. There are a few thematic specifics they desire, but overall Fiddleblack is looking for sharp and dusky work with a strong sense of place. Sometime next year, they’ll begin accepting unsolicited queries for their small press, so be sure to sign up for the mailing list.

Contact them at [email protected] with any questions, or to query directly.

The Rumpus’ own Nicholas Rombes is featured in Fiddleback #2.
