We’re pleased to bring you the newest installment of the Where to Submit list, headlined by a photo from Pelle Cass’s “Selected People” series. Cass writes:
This work both orders the world and exaggerate its chaos. With the camera on a tripod, I take many dozens of pictures, and simply leave in the figures I choose and omit the rest. The photographs are composite, but nothing has been changed, only selected. My subject is the strangeness of time, the exact way people look, and a surprising world that is visible only with a camera.
If you run a small press, magazine, fellowship, or other opportunity, we’re happy to include you on the next Where to Submit list—email Dennis James Sweeney with the appropriately formatted listing at dennis@entropymag.org. As for the current post, we are only able to update it in case of mistakes or corrections.
One last important note: Starting in 2018, these lists will come out every three months instead of every two. That means we’ll be skipping this February—the next list will be for Spring 2018, i.e. March, April, and May.
Sending our best wishes your way for the holidays and for submitting your writing into the world! ❄❄❄
