WE’RE OPEN TO SUBMISSIONS.
Yes, it’s that time again. PUNK NOIR Magazine throwing another flash theme out there to sharpen your writing teeth on!
What’s your sin of choice? Is it Sloth? Perhaps you’re partial to a little Wrath? Or maybe your weakness is that lovely Lust? Whatever it may be, choose one of the seven deadly sins and write a crime caper about it in under 200 words.
I’m going to choose 14 of the best and publish them in Punk Noir during the seventh month. So get to it, folks.
Remember though, 200 words MAX!
(All pieces MUST be in a
Word Doc w/a 3rd person BIO)
Please give me some kind of a greeting, folks. Don’t just rudely attach your submission to an empty email and expect me to read it like you’re some kind of a literary megastar beyond simple salutations. I hate that.
Subs Open NOW until JUNE 27th
