Of all of Australia's small press publications, one of the most exciting is the fully independent and downright eccentric TRUNK. Promoted here in the lead up to its first handsome publication, TRUNK #1 was themed on Hair, and invited writers, artists, poets, designers and any creative person with a wish to get involved to submit material for the launch issue. Now in bookshops and available online, TRUNK is calling for contributions to issue 2, themed around Blood. As their website explains:
Blood is a fluid, living tissue—a complex mix of platelets and plasma. Far more than a physical and chemical solution of red and white cells, haemoglobin and protein, blood is the most ubiquitous and profound symbol for the deepest of human concerns: life, death, love and sex.
We seek writing and art that explores the fascinating cultural, medical, geographical, historical, religious and social aspects of this abundant bodily fluid. Submissions must be accessible, curious, entertaining and stimulating.
We encourage fiction, poetry, art, photography, recipes, essays, photo-essays and interviews about all things bloody—see the list below for a comprehensive list of suggestions.
The deadline for material is October 30, 2009. Click here for the submission guidelines, or visit the webiste.
