Subject: Call For Submissions

Dear Writer,
 
Greetings from Nimrod International Journal.  I'm writing to tell you
about our themes for our spring and fall 2006 issues.  Nimrod is
currently accepting submissions for "The Healing Arts" and "Doings the
Hundreds at Fifty."   I have included detailed information about these
themes below.
 
I hope you will send your work to us at Nimrod, The University of Tulsa,
600 S. College Ave., Tulsa, OK 74104.  Please send email submissions
only if you are a writer living overseas.   If you have any questions,
please write to us at nimrod at utulsa.edu
 
Best,
 
 
Eilis O'Neal
Managing Editor
Nimrod International Journal
 
*If you do not wish to receive information from Nimrod, please reply to
this email with a note and we will remove your name from our list.
 
 

Call for Manuscripts for Spring 2006 

 
"The Healing Arts"
 
Born of the cataclysmic events of recent history, this issue of Nimrod
International Journal will contain works dealing with natural and
man-made devastation — war, flood, terrorism, disease.   We also welcome
submissions on any subject by doctors and other practitioners of the
healing arts.
 
In this way, we demonstrate once again how art and literature are part
of the healing process, inviting us to express grief, pain, anger, and
love, while the demands of craft — including an absence of
sentimentality and cliché — dictate that those emotions be shaped and
transmuted into lasting story and poem. 
 
Deadline for submissions:  January 15, 2006
 
Publication date:  April, 2006
 
Send to: Nimrod, The University of Tulsa, 600 S. College Ave., Tulsa, OK
74104
 
 
 
Call for Manuscripts for Fall 2006
Oklahoma Centennial Celebratory issue:
Nimrod "Doing the Hundreds at Fifty"
 
100 writers help celebrate Oklahoma's 100 years of statehood and the
50th year of the publication of Nimrod International Journal. The theme
is deliberately open and invites interpretation. 
 
"Doing the Hundreds at Fifty" encourages us to think about how we divide
experience into segments of memory; how we capture—in decades, eras,
centuries—public and private history. 
 
"Doing the Hundreds at Fifty" may also suggest a playful exchange
between numbers and words.  For example, poems of 100 words or 100
stanzas; short and short-short fiction of multiples of 100. 
 
"Doing the Hundreds at Fifty" reminds us of the importance of counting,
of meter, of digits, of choreographed units.
 
Celebrating our 50th year of publication, and the 100th year of Oklahoma
statehood, this issue will be part of a double issue, including Awards
28.  The double issue will include "Doing the Hundreds at Fifty," as
described above, and the winners, honorable mentions, and finalists of
the 28 th Nimrod/Hardman Awards competition.
 
Send us your take on "Doing the Hundreds at Fifty" and also submit to
our 28th Awards competition.
 
Deadline for submissions for "Doing the Hundreds at Fifty:" March 1st,
2006
 
Deadline for the Awards competition: April 30th, 2006 (for rules visit
www.utulsa.edu/nimrod/awards)
 
Send to: Nimrod, The University of Tulsa, 600 S. College Ave., Tulsa, OK
74104.
