Welcome to Drunken Boat’s online submissions system. We accept submissions ONLY via this system. We do not read submissions sent to the editor’s address or via snail mail. Artwork or media which the online system cannot support can be sent to editor@drunkenboat.com. Please read the following guidelines: You can expect a reply in about 3-4 months. We regret that, due to the volume of submissions, we are unable to give personalized criticism. Call for Submissions: Handmade/Homemade: Drunken Boat, the online journal of arts and literature, seeks work for a Handmade/Homemade Folio. This folio will include handmade, homemade and letterpress chapbooks, one-of-a-kind editions and broadsides. We envision a marriage of the visual and textual, as a complement to Drunken Boat’s mission of reinventing the printed page. Work might include collage work, film, photography, scans of text objects and applicable forms of visual poetry. The folio is slated for Issue 16 (Winter 2012) and will likely be linked with the annual Handmade/Homemade exhibit at Pace University, Westchester Country (March, 2012). Call for Submissions: Open the City: Drunken Boat, alongside the Asian American Writers' Workshop, seek works in a variety of media (poems, artworks, essays, photography, translations, architectural blueprints, videos, web work, mixed media, documentary, theatrical production) that respond to the question of Asian and Middle Eastern-American populations in urban spaces. These can take a particular city as point of departure, can verge to cities around the world, engaging with the notion of how the forces of displacement and accretion intersect to create identity in a particular environment. We envision Chinatown, Little India, mosques in metropolitan areas, ethnic groceries, foreign film theaters, etc. all as possible sites for investigation. Deadline: October 1st. Make sure to select Asian-Americans on the City as your submission's genre. Call for Submissions: Hypnopoeia, Hypnogeography, Hypnoecology: And Other Imagined Futures. Drunken Boat, online journal of the arts, announce a call for works in a variety of media (poems, artworks, essays, photography, translations, architectural blueprints, videos, web work, mixed media, documentary, theatrical production) that respond to the question of how, as poet Leslie Scalapino writes, “the inside and the outside simultaneously create each other.” The prefix “hypno” comes from the Greek hupnos meaning sleep and many might think that a hypnotic state is only inner directed. But trance states can point towards the potential for radical change in outward manifestations of larger human consciousness(es)—and we are seeking works that understand “hypno” as central to bringing the writer/artist in conversation with a reader and from there, to the wider social realm. The catastrophic future—the one we seem to be headed towards—hasn’t happened yet and this folio will collect imaginings of what is possible. Deadline: March, 2012. Make sure to select Hypnooetics as your submission's genre. Call for Submissions: The Body Silent: Drunken Boat seeks nonfiction on illness and the body, works that put into words that which cannot be named. In the tradition of “HIV, Mon Amour” by Tory Dent and “The Two Kinds of Decay” by Sarah Manguso, we’re seeking works that articulate the varied experiences of the body. This folio will be guest-edited by Suzanne Paola. Deadline: January 15, 2011.
