ngā pukapuka pekapeka is open for submissions. Aotearoa New Zealand resident writers only.
We are looking for work:
- that pushes boundaries (content and/or form)
- that is confident both on the page and on the stage
We
are interested in short stories, poetry collections and novellas. We
have a particular interest in writers from Te Waipounamu, tangata
whenua, and emerging writers, though we are open to all writers living
in New Zealand.
We
are open to submissions of approximately 40 document pages
(conventional submission formatting- double spaced, 12pt font). If yours
is more or less than this, tell us why. We’re flexible if the length
fits the form. If you are sending us a collection, give it a title.
Submissions will be considered by our editorial collective as a whole.
Part
of publication will involve readings and live events in Te Waipounamu,
and our authors will need to be in, or able to travel to, Ōtautahi for
these.
Submissions are due on 31 May.
Send your work to ngapukapukapekapeka@gmail.com.
