New writing platform - submissions welcome

by Louise Taylor
4th January 2018

I hope it's appropriate to post this here. (Admin, please delete if it's not.)

Amanda Oosthuizen and I have recently launched Words for the Wild - http://wordsforthewild.co.uk/2017/12/18/about-us/ - a new literary platform for poetry, short stories and flash fiction rooted in our countryside.

We are currently seeking submissions for a print anthology to follow later this year. You can get an idea of the kind of things we like by looking at our website, which includes poetry and short fiction from a number of kind supporters. The website also provides more details on what has spurred us to launch this project, and gives guidelines for submission to the anthology. Needless to say, this is a charitable endeavour and any profits will be directed accordingly. I do hope this doesn't put anyone off as we would love to receive some submissions from W&A users!

Any questions, please do ask.

Louise

I have tried the link today 31 Jan 18 and after several attempts one time it brought me back here.

Shame I wanted to take a look. Hope you get it sorted out soon.

The instagram link doesn't work for me either. It sounds like a great project.

The link might not work because the website is "unclassified". My company's firewall automatically blocks any attempts to access unclassified websites.
