No definitive deadline. Just keep in mind that we're publishing it in January, so earlier the better.

>>8794907
I 'member the april reader
I 'member parrot porn

>>8794916
Cool. What name did you guys settle on?

>>8794923
The Unpublished.

>>8794928
Dope

>>8794907
I submitted something to Ideology recently. didn't know it was dead.

>>8794953
Send it to us then. We'll be happy to read it.

>>8794907
why doesn't /lit/ just stick to one?

What should I write, a short story? Or a serialization of a novel?

>>8795439
Because after the first thread dies everyone forgets about it.

>>8795452
ZWG and TAR have about 50 issues between them. You're talking bollocks.

btw is the Mega folder still current?

mega:///#F!ZhRkSYDJ!znjtIBp0RaiVozOAW30B4A

>>8795547
That folder has nothing to do with this.

>>8794907

Ideology just posted a thread the other day saying they're open for their third issue submissions

Ideologylit.com/submissions

im going to write something for this

how do i think of a good pseudonym though.

>>8795883
first name = last name
last name = name of your first pet

>>8795448
We're accepting both, as long as the novel excerpt works by itself.

>>8795439
Because /lit/ is not just one homogeneous body of beliefs, identities and aesthetical positions, I'm afraid.

>>8795903
wow that actually sounds really good
thanks bro

>>8794907

Is /lit/ quarterly dead already too? That was like less than a month old.

>>8795916
It didn't even came to be a thing. if you ask me.

Roberts Midget?

(it was a pigmy goat)

>>8794886
do you guys need a designer?

The person who did Pinecone is good at presentation. If they designed another magazine, I would consider submitting to it. But only if I got to vet and edit all the submissions.

wheres the previous

>>8796024
You're not really that important and you are not even that good of a writer.

>>8795962
It certainly would help.

>>8796219
ok ill drop a line

>>8794886
First of all, let me get something straight: this is a JOURNAL, not a diary, desu.

>>8796677
meaning?

>>8794886
Are you accepting submissions in Spanish? That would be great, though, and I could help to edit.

>>8796739
No thank you, we only accept real languages, bye.

>>8796747
Okay.

>>8794886
Do you have any idea how long a single issue will be?

>>8797070
I guess what I mean is,
how many poems
how many stories
how many essays?

>>8797083

>how many poems
73

>how many stories
19

>how many essays?
97

>>8797083
We're thinking 30 pages, roughly. Around 15 for prose (maybe more), 10 for poetry (maybe less) and 5 for essays.

You can submit anything from 100 to 3000 words really.

>>8796739
I can read Spanish and Portuguese, in which I'm fluent. I think some of the other guys can read German too. But we'd rather you send it already translated to English, please, cause it would spare us of some unnecessary extra work.

Bump for submissions

>>8798334
So no set-in-stone deadline? I have a few ideas for a post-Soviet gonzo piece, would you be interested? Less "I'm a Russkie and I'm sad", more "noveau riche zoo in almost-Western land".

when do subs close?

Will this be trash website only publishing

Or

Trash TAR unfiltered garbage that culls submissions from outside sources

>>8799122
We'll be making sure only people who are regular 4chan users have their work published by asking them to give the secret 4chan password.

>>8799140
Having it posted on another website means nothing...

>>8795903
Walsh Buddy doesn't sound too good

>>8799229
I don't really know what you're saying.

>>8799299
You're not actually publishing. Sad!

Cringe website

>>8799617
Do you not speak English?

>>8799617
It's online publication. If it's permanent and accessible to the public, it counts. Different from posting on a message board where threads age out. Also they're obviously not doing it for money. It's just a way to share and spread lit. I support this project.

>>8799686
Haha this is so lame. Livejournal for lit. So embarrassing!

>>8799706
In what way is a magazine like LiveJournal?

>>8800060

Haha they (you) are posting it to a webpage. Adding zero value!

Just forget about it, man. It's not worth it.
