CrossBRONX is currently accepting submissions!
CrossBRONX is seeking short stories, creative non-fiction, poetry and photography on the theme of HOME.
What does home mean to you? What is it like to have a love/hate relationship with your home? What if home is a friend’s couch, or a shelter, or a park? Is it a color, a sound, a sudden sharp sense memory? Home is a complicated concept, and for this issue we want new and challenging views of what “home” means. We want to meet fictional characters who wrestle with the diverse emotional, physical, and spiritual landscape of “home.” We want poetry that illuminates different aspects of “home” – safety, warmth, family, confinement, repression, fear, love, food, sex, etc. We want photographs that show us something we’ve never seen before.
Submissions are welcome from Bronx-based writers, as well as work that takes place in the Bronx.
Submissions for the Summer issue are due by June 20th, but we will consider all work received after this date for the fall issue.
