 WRITERS
Luna
Park is constantly looking for wonderful pieces about
lit mags: reviews, interviews, essays, poems, art installations,
dance interpretations, hat tricks, and the like, we are
interested. We publish exciting, introspective looks at
or responses to the art, culture, and history of literary
magazines. Think New
York Review of Books blended with The
Believer, or Times
Literary Supplement coupled with The
Stranger--but about lit mags, art mags, zines.
We publish quarterly and occasionally (meaning constantly),
so send us your writing night and day, 24, 365.
Luna
Park's premiere issue has received wonderful attention--receiving
upwards of 500 hits a day, wonderful emails from writers
and readers, have been linked on Bookforum, PENAmerica,
and more. Ann Beattie called it a "great site,"
for which, of course, we are more than tickled.
FREE
LIT MAG
That's
right: like most, we can't pay. (At least not yet.) But
we offer all of our writers a lit mag chosen at random
from The Chest. (As you might imagine, we have lit mags
coming out our ears around the office.) Also, for those
that continue writing for Luna Park, we promise a deluge
of literary magazines to your mailbox. Send writing, get
writing.
DETAILS
As
an online quarterly, we are always looking for new pieces
for each issue (deadlines are the 15th of April, July,
October, and January).For example: our spring issue goes
online the final day of April, so submissions are due
April 15th.
As
an occasional review, we are continually looking for up
to date responses/reactions to the lit mags or worlds
that it touches. Maybe a nice essay on the passing of
Robbe-Grillet, the recent changes at Granta,
or a stunning new poem by Bruce Smith? These (usually
shorter) pieces are published as soon as we can get them
up.
(For
examples of what we publish, read through this site or
go to our previous blog
existance. Also, check out what they are doing over at
such other places as Rain
Taxi or The
Magazineer.)
SEND
TO
Please send all submissions to lunaparkreview@gmail.com
as .doc or .rtf file attachments. (But feel free to pester
us at this address about any old lit mag thing.) Label
submissions with "Submission" in the subject
line.
