Finding Contributors for zine content...

I'm hoping that some of you may be able to give me some places where I can request written material for my zine.

Thanks in advance.

You know...

That, my friend is a darn good question. I like parenting issues. I also like politics and art etc. I like supporting women's "voices".

So, there you have it. I can always be specific when posting my call, no?

Life is short, do it now.

yes, absolutely! i just wasn'

yes, absolutely! i just wasn't sure if you were looking more for places frequented by parents (some of whom might write) - or a more general group of writers who might or might not be parents.

okay, here's what i can think of at the moment:

- calls for comp zines at zinesters.net

- "the muse" forum at You Are Still Here (now i guess the board is called Maternita)

- the chicklit board's "calls for submission" thread

- Writer's Board at mothering dot commune

- the boards at pander zine distro

- it's not a bb as such, but you can email elke at grrlzines.net and she'll announce a call on this page of her site (none of it looks real current, you might want to check with her first.)

i'm sure there are others. that is what's springing to mind off the top of my head. HTH. :)

You are a dear.

jenna, you rock. Thank you sooo much for all the time you take to be "with" us on line. I admire and respect you very much. I will take time to follow up on your leads. How do you get submissions for tenderfoot?? Maybe we could do a writing project for each other?!
thanks.
