The Print Journal

Due to the madness brought forth by Issue One, submissions are not being accepted at this time until the devastation has been undevastated. Any submissions received will be shredded and used as confetti at our next fiesta. However, if you look over to your right, Like Water Burning's online jounal of (Non)Fickshun is currently accepting fiction and non-fiction of 500 words or less. Switch over to column B now for more details.

The (Non)Fickshun 500

Submit your fiction or non-fiction piece of 500 words or less to LWBFlashFiction@yahoo.com. Why 500?  500 can be divided by 2. We like that. It can also be divided by 5, which is something we really like. Submissions should be really, really good—but go ahead and send us the really good ones, too. We’ll still read them and plan on giving them equal LWB love. Selected submissions will be featured on the ultra-sleek Like Water Burning (Non)Fickshun Racetrack.

Multiple submissions are permitted, but no more than two per person. Only unpublished work will be considered.  If you would like to submit a piece but don’t know what to write about, consider writing about one or more of the following: drugstore janitors, seven grain whole wheat toast, underachieving fourth graders, neon orange paperclips, old hotdogs in soggy buns, the inevitable commercial success of salmon-flavored toothpaste, that girl in freshman composition who makes you sweat, talking cupcakes that scream when you eat them, talking pencils that cry when you sharpen them, or talking mutes. (Note: Writing on one of the suggested topics will not increase your chances of being featured on the ultra-sleek LWB Racetrack. Sending us well-concealed wads of cash in plain, brown envelopes marked NOT A WAD OF CASH, on the other hand, will.

Please send all online submissions to
LWBFlashFiction@yahoo.com with
FICTION or NON-FICTION in the subject line.
