Call for Submissions about Motherhood in Precarious Times: Deadline Extended to November 15, 2016



It's been an amazingly busy summer, even by my schedule-crushing standards, with readings, travel, conferences, and even the occasional tiny bit of writing here and there--mostly there. I'll post more about some of this summer's happenings, events and projects soon (at this rate, quite possibly in the fall), but, in the meantime, if you are a poet, fiction writer or essayist with something to say about the nature and circumstances of mothering in precarious times, please consider submitting to When All Else Fails: Motherhood in Precarious Times.

I will be co-editing this anthology with the amazingly talented professors Danielle Joy Davis and Barbara Schwartz-Bechet.

The call is open to Canadian, U.S. and international submissions. The deadline for poetry and fiction, and for essay proposals, has been extended to November 15, 2016.

If the topic isn't for you, take a look at some of Demeter Press's other current anthology calls.
