CCC Press Call for Fiction

29/1/2014

 
Picture
CCC Press (www.cccpress.co.uk) is showcasing new writing in English from around the world in their new series of country anthologies.  The World Englishes Literature (Fiction) series (www.new-ventures.net) has so far published anthologies of stories from Cameroon, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya and Malaysia. The anthologies focus on the production of new writing in English or local Englishes, which is edited and presented with a critical introduction.  This is a call for the projected collection from Jamaica, the Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, and Barbados. 

Submission Guidelines for Short Stories
Word count:  3000-8000 words

There is no theme; the work only needs to reflect Jamaica, the Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago or Barbados in some manner.

This is adult fiction (in the sense that it is not “children’s fiction”).

The work must be written in an English (i.e., not translated from another language) and must be written by a resident of Jamaica, the Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago or Barbados (This is not a collection of diaspora writing.).  

The story must be “new” in the sense that it is “unpublished” and has not been published in any form.  

Please send submissions by email to tiffanyuaustin@gmail.com, attached as a Microsoft Word document and formatted as follows:
Name of author (Times New Roman, 12pt, bold, left justified).
Contact address, telephone number and email (Times New Roman, 12pt, bold, left justified).
Title of short story (Times New Roman, 14pt, bold, centered, underlined).
Body text (Times New Roman, 12pt, justified, 1.5 line spacing, black).
Page numbers and name of author on every page please.
Word count at the end of the story (Bold, left justified).
Maximum of two entries per person please.
Please submit by May 1, 2014.
