"Calls for Submissions" Introduction Page

Only a few pages of the Online Bibliography blog are actually needed for the Bibliography. The remaining pages are pressed into service as the Virtual Grub Street blog family's "Calls For Submission" pages. So you may want to subscribe to the Bibliography RSS (or Atom) in order to get the latest information.

Scroll down the main blog page to see the most recent calls for submissions. The listings will include literary calls as well as calls for visual arts, freelance journalism and academic/professional papers. The calls will often include one-time and annual competitions. As you scroll you will likely come upon the various pages of the Online Bibliography, as well. Some of these pages are quite long but calls for submissions will resume on the other side.

If you wish to have your own call for submissions or competition posted, contact me at gwpurdy@yahoo.com. A confirming link may be required in order to post your notice. I will process as many calls as time and my many projects allow.

Competition: Literary Humor Contest.

Welcome to the back pages of the Gilbert Wesley Purdy Online Bibliography. Rather than merely use a few pages for the Bibliography I have decided to begin posting calls for submissions again.

I will include all notices the I have time to post.

Oh, and I hope you will stop in at the Hyperlinked Internet Bibliography page, as well. Perhaps you will find something of interest there.

Comments: "we are seeking spurious sequels to works of literature or nonfiction, complete with a one-line description, e,g,: S. Grant: Stately, plump Buck Mulligan is elected president of the United States. Charlotte’s Website: www.SomePig.com :) Regurgitates, Reloads, and Remains: A slightly edgier grammar manual. Conversely, if you hold to the notion that every great tale has its antecedent, and every indelible fictional character has his or her predecessor, you may also submit preposterous prequels..."

Contact: Please send entries (no more than three per person, please!) with indications as to whether they are spurious sequels or preposterous prequels to fiction@chronogram.com or Humor Contest, Chronogram, 314 Wall Street, Kingston, NY 12401.
