Call for Submissions to Anthology: Dispatches from Anarres: Portland Authors Pay Tribute to the Vision of Ursula K. Le Guin

Ursula K. Le Guin Tribute Anthology

The year 2018 marked the passing of the great speculative author Ursula K. Le Guin, a longtime resident of Portland, Oregon.

In the age of Trump, Portland in many ways is like Anarres, the anarchist capital of The Dispossessed—a “rebel moon” of the Left Coast, home to activists, artists, and yes, anarchists. Hence a new anthology, currently under development in collaboration with Ooligan Press: Dispatches from Anarres: Portland Authors Pay Tribute to the Vision of Ursula K. Le Guin.

The submissions period is currently open and will close on April 2, 2019; submissions of short fiction ranging from 1,000 to 5,000 words will be considered. Authors must be either current or former residents of Portland, or have a strong connection to the city (please state your connection in your cover letter).

Send submissions as Word file (doc or docx) attachment to:

dispatchessubmissionsATgmailDOTcom (Change AT to @ and DOT to . )

and include a short bio along with your cover letter in the body of the email.

A small honorarium will be paid upon publication, and reprints will be considered.
