writing opportunity: 300 words or fewer: Kahini Magazine

This looks like an interesting opportunity. Submit 300 words or fewer--any genre. The magazine pays $100 IF they choose to publish your piece. Also, farther down in the message, see info on some fascinating writing events.


2019 has got off to a great start at Kahini

Submissions Open for Kahini Magazine 
Submissions are open for Kahini magazine. Published eleven times per year (November/December is a combined edition), Kahini magazine features interviews and new artistic works.

We accept artistic work of three-hundred words or fewer, in all genres: poetry, prose, or cross-genre work.

Submit work by emailing writing@kahini.org. We pay $100 usd per accepted piece. Please submit without querying.

Our best advice for writers is in the words of Annie Dillard: "One of the things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water."

Other than that advice, simply send us your truest, most finely tuned artistic work of three-hundred words or fewer. Our acceptance rate is currently 1.7%. We look forward to reading your work.

Without exaggeration, this retreat is one of the high points of my year. I can't wait to come back.

This is just one of the comments from our 2019 Kāpiti Writer's Retreat Participants. This year we brought together another awesome teaching team - Brannavan Gnanalingam, James George, Lynn Jenner, Mandy Hager, Vana Manasiadis and Whiti Hereaka - who generously shared their knowledge and experience with the written word.
