Rolling submissions October 11th - January 11th!

We’re looking for prose/poetry/art/hybrid pieces about searching for a place to belong.

Picture of small rounded windows with flowers behind. Through the windows, the text "I Haven't Made It Home Yet" is visible. In front, it reads: Submissions Open / October 11 - January 11

Submit your prose, poetry, illustration, comics, and multimedia work to I Haven't Made It Home Yet.

We're looking for pieces about searching for a place to belong, especially:

➊ returning to a familiar place and finding it changed or unrecognizable;
➋ being displaced or out of place, feeling like a stranger;
➌ memories and how they warp over time;
➍ nostalgia, and missing something irretrievable.

things that only silence can answer

whisks of air waiting for wind/ and hungry
tongues trying to reach stomachs for a
better taste of nothing

We're excited by:

➊ returning to a familiar place and finding it changed or unrecognizable;
➋ being displaced or out of place, feeling like a stranger;
➌ memories and how they warp over time;
➍ nostalgia, and missing something irretrievable.

Study the various genres of scream with "IN THE MOMA SCREAMING EXHIBITION" by Victoria C. Roskams!

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC

Cover illustration from THE YELLING CONTINUES above the contributor feature.

IN THE MOMA SCREAMING EXHIBITION by Victoria C. Roskams

In the MoMA Screaming Exhibition, no one can hear you scream. Blood-curdling and spine-tingling and hackle-raising and even chuckle-inducing: the full gamut. Do you know how many kinds of scream there are?

Listen to the crackling of static as you traverse the poem "CTRL+SHIFT+U" by Robert Beveridge.

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC
About the author: xterminal.bandcamp.com

CTRL+SHIFT+U by Robert Beveridge
WEBSITE: xterminal.bandcamp.com

There is static, of course. There is always static.
You can measure signal-to-noise ratios on fiber optics
all you want; most of us barely manage copper,
and that’s on a good day. Never mind the opportunists
who are trying to sneak in, steal that wire, sell it
so they can afford to trick out their pickups,
roll coal down the alleys of your brain.

"IS THAT A FLY? MOSQUITO? WHERE DID IT GO? WHERE IS THE FLY SWATTER?" by Brytton Bjorngaard brings to mind the incessant buzzing of summer.

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC
#art #anthology

Artwork “IS THAT A FLY? MOSQUITO? WHERE DID IT GO? WHERE IS THE FLY SWATTER?” by Brytton Bjorngaard.

Colorful multimedia letterpress art with letters and numbers on a semi-opaque ink background. To the left is a column of bright calligraphic text reading “Whoooooooooosh / Whoooooooooossssh / Whoooooooooosh”.

"Everyday objects earworm into my obsessive mind: the bass of my neighbor's television, the turning of the clock handles at the back of the classroom, the sound of the train on the tracks over 2 miles away, the low rumble of cars at the stoplight..." - Brytton Bjorngaard

The homogenisation and consolidation of buisinesses and brands has led to the erosion of the midlist, the indie movie or band or comic. There's a real sense of "I'll only try media that's already popular / famous," and I'm begging you to look for the weird shit, the experimental, the niche.

Full of biting meaning (and metaphorical noise), an excerpt from "RAKSHASA" by K. Sundaram.

THE YELLING CONTINUES Anthology: pwritersu.com/TYC
#poetry #anthology

Cover illustration from THE YELLING CONTINUES above the contributor feature.

RAKSHASA by K. Sundaram

A vitreous fluid living between the heartbeats of a dying virus, the kind of thing that breaches a bruised topaz cave, a glossed lip. Roadkill and waning headlight become twin copper vessels, each responsible for the burying of the other. Meaning, for once, this creature will play destroyer.

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

How many cats can you spot? Our first art feature, "CATS" by Lisa Dailey celebrates the liveliness of cats both real and imagined.

About the artist: lisa-dailey.com
#art #anthology

Artwork “CATS” by Lisa Dailey: an abstract mixed-media print with floral motifs and splotches of ink. There are at least three cats faintly visible looking at the viewer, although the longer you look the more you may see...

Special acknowledgement to our mascot Buddy The Cat (dog) for just barely missing the delete key...this time.

Breaking news and the latest headlines run together like ticker tape in "THOUGHT PROVOKING STORIES" by RL Selden, stumbling over each other to be heard.

We still have a few copies of THE YELLING CONTINUES anthology available: pwritersu.com/TYC

THOUGHT PROVOKING STORIES by RL Selden

Math consumed with negativity
Looked good but felt bad in the
U.S. the head of the Church
Wants to address the housing
Shortage hide your home address
A clear win for fish and rivers
