Clatsop Community College’s Rain Magazine announces that submissions are open until Feb. 1 for community members to submit their original work.
Due to COVID constraints, Rain 52’s theme section will continue to focus on the idea of “Healing,” after having to suspend publication last spring. Contributors are encouraged to explore the subject however they interpret it.
Of course, all general submissions of art, fiction, poetry and nonfiction will be also considered.
Rain Magazine is produced annually by the Writing 270: Literary Publications class at Clatsop Community College, which includes instruction in editing techniques and Adobe InDesign, the industry standard for book design. The class will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 12:30 p.m. during Winter Quarter at the Star of the Sea and the public is encouraged to register for the class and join the staff.
Those interested in submitting work are asked to submit no more than three items total, including poems, photographs, high-quality (at least 300 dpi) digital images of original artwork and prose less than 5,000 words in length. Make sure to label your work by its appropriate genre (poetry, fiction, nonfiction) in a cover letter or on the manuscript.
The ability to print color is limited, so artists submitting color images should indicate if the image may appear in black and white. Include name, address, phone number, email, title, medium and a two-to-three-line biography with all entries.
Email work to rainmagazine@clatsopcc.edu. Include your full name and contact information along with genres and titles of submissions in the subject line of your email message. Submissions without proper contact information will not be considered. Email submissions are greatly preferred. RTF or Docx is the preferred format for written work. TIFF or JPG files (at least 300 dpi) are preferred for artwork.
You can also mail submissions to Rain Magazine, Clatsop Community College, 1651 Lexington Ave., Astoria, OR, 97103.
