Moonwise

I am looking for contributions for the 2013 Moonwise Diary, to be published in late September 2012. The absolute deadline is likely to be mid to late August 2012, but I’d be very grateful if you can send me your work as long before that as possible.

I am looking for both artwork and writing, on the themes of religion (particularly Paganism, but also others), nature and the cycle of the year, and especially of the moon and the goddess and god. For 2012 I am especially looking for pieces about the end of the world (or of old ways of doing things) and the beginning of something new, but everything is welcome. Do send contributions as early as possible, even though I probably won’t finalise the layout until the last moment before going to press in August 2012. I will, however, endeavour to acknowledge receipt of anything you send! I can’t offer cash payment, but in return for your work, I will offer a good discount on any number of Moonwise Calendars and Diaries you buy.

Please send contributions to wizard@moonwise.co.uk, as far as possible. If there are things you wish to send through the post, contact me first, and I will let you know my home address. You do not need to send stamped addressed envelopes, and I will return all I receive (unless you tell me not to).

Pictures:

If the originals are in colour, please send me colour versions, unless you have mono versions you particularly like. They can be in any format, but do make sure they are good quality (high resolution).

Writings:

Please either include them as part of the normal text of a message (this is the most straightforward thing to do), or send them as Word, Pages or InDesign attachments, or just simple .txt files.

I am very happy to receive illustrations with writing, and explanatory text with pictures.

With all contributions, please enclose your name, and if you wish your name to appear in print in a particular way, do let me know. Make sure you have given me titles for your contributions, if they have them.

I look forward to hearing from you. The material you send gives the diary real character and worth, and it can be very satisfying (and maybe useful) for you to have published work.
