BluePrintReview #25: 'two²'

issue 25 has the theme "2" - or rather: "two²"

for this issue, 2 will be the concept both in a formal, and in a thematic way: stories in 2 parts. pairs of poems. or: pairs of texts, set back to back. texts structured in alternating timelines, or told from alternating viewpoints.

and from theme: poems/stories/essays about the two sides of things, about things done twice, about two kingdoms (or two lives), about couples/twins, about second thoughts, about pairings.

& some examples for the artwork: images of 2 objects. or photos in 2 layers. or 2 shots from the same place, combined.


or to make it simple: make it 2.


invited:
- fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction
- photos& artwork

submissions open: 1. June 2010
submissions close: 27. June 2010

issue is planned for: August 2010

send: send 1-3 poems, texts up to ~2000 words, and/or 2-3 images (low resolution or link is fine). please include a line about you / your work, and website or blog links.

text + image note: if possible, accompany text submissions with an image submission that fits the general theme - the idea for the issue is to shape a 'roundabout' of stories and images (accepted stories will be combined with an image from another contributor & vice versa, like in the current issue)

previously published works are welcome, online publications are preferred, please include the link to the original publication

simultaneous submissions: are fine, please indicate this in the submission, and withdraw simultaneous submissions as soon as they are accepted elsewhere.
