NWG Inc’s Blog

NEW Writers’ Group Inc thanks all the writers who sent entries to ZineWest 09. The editors enjoyed reading the diverse collection of short works. They had the usual struggle to keep the short list short enough for our production budget.

D. P. Aldridge; G. Anderson; Sepy Baghaei; G. Barbagallo; L. Bartolo; E. Bartulovich; D. Bofinger; N. Collis; I. Cosar; K. Davis; C. Dockmagian; J. Douglas; Y. Eckhardt; M. Finlayson; J. Gray; A.

Dear NWG Inc members and gatherers

The 2009 anthology is now open. Carol Amos is senior editor with some occasional help from Sue Crawford. When it comes to binding the anthologies, it will be all hands on deck!

But for now, please send us your entries of prose, poetry, drama and cartoons – all topics, styles and genres welcome. Your work needs to fit into no more that 2 A5 pages. Please read the Information Sheet see link below, for details before submitting work. All work must be submitted with completed Entry Form (see below). Entries due by 31 August, 09.

NB HAIKU: If you have written Haiku for the Riverbeats project, you can have some additional space on our Haiku pages. We aim to include at least one Haiku from every Haiku contributor in either the Riverbeats project or the Anthology (or both). You do not have to be a NWG Inc member/gatherer to have one or more of your Haiku in our anthology. Haiku writers will be emailed a separate entry/permission form

ILLUSTRATIONS: These are very welcome. We cannot guarantee to find room for them all, but we love to include a few to enhance the pages. Please note they need to be original works. If someone else has illustrated your work that’s fine, but they will need to fill in an entry form for copyright reasons.
