Submissions are open
Shape Poems, Sci Fi, Flash, and an ekphrastic Poem, a veritable literature fruitcake, all in one issue. Tell me that isn’t tasty! And so too in our own writing, variety can be beneficial. Think of yourself as a poet? Try starting a mystery novel. Literary novelist? Try your hand at a sci fi poem. A what!? Yes, a science fiction poem. Editor of a carp-based online lit site? Try a romance...okay that’s going too far. You get my point. Mix it up. Don’t shoot for publication necessarily, but only enrichment and fun. Think Royal, not Chas, Tenenbaum.
Enjoy! - Ken, Editor PS - Check out the Classifieds, think about Supporting StC, and view the latest pic in the Carpwork Gallery. |

E K P H R A S T I C P O E M Jeanne Julian’s poem ‘O, Awaken’ is no less beautiful on its own, but accompanying Elizabeth Darrow’s mesmerizing painting, it reaches new levels. Thanks to Ms. Darrow for donating the image.
