BEARDS: the zine

Announcing BEARDS: the zine. A one off zine about beards. Good beards, bad beards, beards made of facial hair, beards made of lies. What do beards mean to you? How have beards affected our society? What is the beard’s place in the universe?

Open to all writers of fiction and non-fiction. No poetry. Go find one of the other 10,000,000 poetry zines for fuck’s sake. 750 word limit. Must be about beards. Must say the word “beard” at least once in the prose. Must be awesome.

Cover letter: Please include a short, third person bio. Please do not include a summary of your story. Please do say something interesting. Please don't feel intimidated by the cover letter.

DEADLINE: January 31st, 2014 11:59 p.m. CST. Expect to hear back around mid Feb.

The zine shall be in print. Contributors will be “paid” in contributor copies. And by copies, I mean one copy.

Submit through Submittable.
