Submit!

Here are a couple of interesting projects which are currently open to submissions:

 Kari Larsen and Colette Newby are editing an anthology called The Fun Percent. Here are the details:

What have you been doing with this weird time? This liminal space where markets are shifting, jobs are scarce, and the issue of money/debt is omnipresent? How are you having fun?
Have you started a small press or an online magazine? Have you written a book? Have you made an online comic? Have you gotten totally obsessed with somebody's tumblr? Have you found a zoological garden obscured in the wilds of your mountain town? How do you seek joy? How do you have fun?
How are you taking advantage of the contemporary world for maximum enjoyment? Essays in the form of words (500 min.), video and art are welcome for consideration. Questions can be directed here on this post or to Kari.Lee.Larsen@Gmail.com, where submissions can go as well. The deadline is the last day of March. Please submit and please reblog!

Rachel Fenton is guest editing the March Edition of the Aotearoa Affair Blog Fest which is created to celebrate the Frankfurt Book Fair, where New Zealand is the guest of honour in 2012:

The first edition of the Aotearoa Affair 2012 will have the theme “CROSSINGS” and will go live by the end of Feburary. Thanks to all who sent contributions!
We are now inviting contributions for the second edition — again, the whole edition will be blog-based, with links leading to the single features. The guest editor for this edition is Rachel Fenton, the theme is: “PAST MYTHS, PRESENT LEGENDS”.
"In these pages we’re highlighting Kiwi and German writers in 2012 and creating a space for interested readers and bloggers to connect and share related posts. If you are a Kiwi or German living anywhere in the world, or if you are from somewhere else but have settled in New Zealand or Germany, we want to hear from you."

Submissions deadline: March 20th - what are you waiting for? Email submissions to:nzgermany2012 [AT] gmail [DOT] com
