NAR Spring 2012 Deadline for Submissions and the Bad Fiction Contest

jlpresco — Wed, 09 May 2012 05:00:35 +0000

NAR’s Spring Quarter Deadline is Wednesday of Week 6 (May 9th) at 3:00 PM! Submit your poems, photos, short stories, manifestos of life, collages, and any other works of art that escaped your creative brain to NAR’s email (narchp@gmail.com), and you could be published! We look forward to your submissions!

Also, NAR is doing something special this quarter. We are having a Bad Fiction Contest on top of our regular publication! That’s right. Think of the worst thing you’ve ever read… Mary Sue characters, angsty vampires, unsatisfying endings, superfluous adverbs, and cliches galore… and put it into one piece of gloriously bad writing, maximum 5 pages single spaced. We’re looking for the so-bad-it’s-hilarious type of story, not the so-bad-my-head-is-about-to-explode-in-pain variety. Send your awful writing to narchp@gmail.com, and you could go down in history as the best-worst author to be published in NAR. Besides being published, you could also win a prize!
