Nonfiction submissions wanted (Rhode Island) | $100 per essay
Added 2022-03-24 20:23:53 +0000 UTCCOMPANY/PUBLICATION: DOWNCITY INK
Deadline: 25 March 2022
Downcity Ink is a new online literary journal and newsletter publishing nonfiction stories about Rhode Island from writers who've called this whacky place home.
We're looking for lighthearted, creative, super-niche writing about the 401 and all our weird little quirks. We're talking essays about Wright's Farm, strong opinions on bakery pizza, open letters to Mounties texting and riding through downtown (or should we say, Downcity), and basically just any awful great, awful funny writing about what makes Rhode Island, Rhode Island.
All work will be compensated in the amount of at least $100, which we hope we'll be able to increase over time. We'll aim to get back to you with a yes or no within a month.
Please note that we are only publishing nonfiction prose at this time. We do not accept fiction or poetry. We do not accept work that is not obviously about Rhode Island, even when it is written by Rhode Islanders. Your work should be clearly about and/or set in Rhode Island. If you have questions about whether your piece is a fit before you submit, please email us at downcityink@gmail.com.
