CFP: At the Laundromat

At the Laundromat

Wanted for use in a paperback anthology:

* short stories (1500 word maximum; shorter preferred)

* poems (poems which will fit on one page have a better chance of being published than do longer ones)

* humorous essays (1500 word maximum; shorter preferred)

* true anecdotes (shorter ones have a better chance of being published; indicate that it is a true anecdote)

which take place at - or involve - a Laundromat.

For our purposes a Laundromat is a commercial establishment where you can do your laundry, the laundry room at a campground, or an apartment building. A dormitory Laundromat story might also work.

No vulgar language, please.

Each contributor will receive two copies of the book and a discount on additional copies.

Deadline: November 1, 2005

Send manuscripts via e-mail to: wem@ameritech.net with the word Laundromat in the subject line, or mail them to

Wilda Morris
499 Falconridge Way
Bolingbrook IL 60440

or to

Cathy Conger
510 Bruce Lane
Wisconsin Rapids WI 54494

Include a brief bio. If you send manuscripts by regular mail, include a stamped, self-addressed envelope, or international reply coupons, if you are submitting from another country.
