online journals that I "co-founded" are seeking submissions

Wamack: A Journal of the Arts:

Send your weird fiction to grantwamack@gmail.com

Word length:1-3000 words.

What we want: weird fiction, bizarro, absurd and anything else that fits in-between these genres. Well-written tales are expected. Stories that flow nicely. We want pieces of art or at least something resembling art.

Kek-W Quarterly
:

5 - 350 words.

Any language.

Looking for originality and a unique voice. Duh.
Some sort of emotional impact, even if oblique or intangible.
A narrative thread rather than just words thrown together.
A mood, atmosphere, flava, vibe.

Prose rather than Trad. Poetry.

Points given for combining genres, formats: show me something I've never seen before. But no experimentation for experimentation's sake.

I reserve the right to contradict myself or ignore any of the above at any point that I feel like.

If I reject your submission it doesn't mean that you or your work suck; it just means I, oh, you know...

If sending v. short pieces, then send several.

We don't know each other. But the potholes in Amherst are ridiculous. God Bless.

Where do you live?

I won't be living in Massachusetts for long.

The potholes on Bay Road when it's a few minutes from the Belchertown border are especially ridiculous.

Ha! Nice. To be somewhat vague, I'm in the neck of Belchertown/Amherst/Northampton. Bay Road is the best secret superhighway in the world....It's rare that I bump into area people on the ole introwebs so I thought I'd give you a shout.
