Oct. 7, 2011:

To our potential contributors:

We are not currently reading submissions. Please check back mid-2012.

GobQ LLC.




Our guidelines are, as always:

GobQ Online will publish writing from around the world. Works originally written in a foreign language will be published bilingually.

We feature Czech, Bosnian, Hungarian, Polish, Croatian, Algerian, Cuban, French, Arabic, Mexican, & Argentine writing, as well as British, Australian, New Zealand & American.

Simultaneous submissions are OK. Please include this info when you submit.

In certain circumstances we are interested in reprint rights. Query.

Guidelines for fiction are that it be short-short, short, novella, or novel-excerpt. Genre fiction will be gladly considered if it is of such a caliber as to make genre distinctions irrelevant. Most readers, when queried about genre fiction & about what they want to read, feel that way, too.

Guidelines for poems that conform to the envelope, stretch the envelope, or shred it completely to reveal something new.

Guidelines for reasoned rants, essays, journal or diary extract(s), memoirs, manifestos, credos, & open letters on any trend(s) or topics that enthuse &/or edify &/or alarm.

Our mission: To honor the integrity of the author's vision & intention, & not let editorial sensibilities be ruled by considerations of sexual or political content, or by political correctness or cant in any guise.

For works in visual media, we are most definitely interested, but query 1st.
