Submissions call for Portland writers

–>

There is a new, youth-led publishing center at Roosevelt High School, and they are looking for submissions to their literary anthology, Between Two Rivers. This will be a collection of pieces about unique and cultural places and people in Portland. The intended audience is anyone who is seeking out places that make Portland special, whether as residents or visitors.

The anthology will be multi-generational and feature new and established writers of all ages. Kim Stafford, Eva Williams, and Lidia Yuknavitch have already contributed pieces. There are plans to distribute to local bookstores and businesses.

Submissions can be short fiction, nonfiction, poems, vignettes, or drawings about your relationship to the people and places of Portland. They could also be interesting facts or historic information that enrich one’s appreciation of Portland’s community or places.

Please use a maximum of 500 words.

Please submit your piece to submit.rhs@gmail.com by October 31, 2012.
