CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

A SHORT STORY ANTHOLOGY from

FOREST AVENUE PRESS

Forest Avenue Press (www.forestavenuepress.com) is seeking short stories by Oregon and Southwest Washington authors for a fiction anthology. The open submission period will run from June 1 to July 31, 2013. The collection will be edited by  short story writer and teacher, Liz Prato, and is slated for release in May 2014.

Maximum length is 6,000 words, although we prefer shorter stories. We enjoy Pacific Northwest settings, but also like local writers with a sense of the larger world. We’re hoping to attract writers from across the state.

This Oregon anthology follows the October 2012 publication of Brave on the Page: Oregon Writers on Craft and the Creative Life, an anthology of flash essays and interviews by forty-two contributors. Brave on the Page spent four months on the Powell’s Small Press Bestseller List.
