Call for Subs: The Watsonain
Hey friend! Have you written Sherlock Holmes meta? Fiction? Poetry? Book review? List of favorite scenes? Made some great art? Want to see on a page, hold it in your hands? The John H. Watson Society, a web-based open and inclusive Sherlock Holmes society, is looking for submissions to our twice-yearly print journal.
The Society welcomes scholarly papers, articles, original fiction, miscellanea or other submissions. One need not be an experienced or academic writer; some of our most engaging articles come from individuals with a love for the writing and appreciation for the pleasures gained over the years.There is always room for your research, thoughts, ideas and creativity. The Society is an inclusive group; we desire interested Watsonians to take part and to approach the Society with innovative projects. Whether you are a first time author is not important; that you try is what counts.
The deadline for the October Fall issue is August 1 and the deadline for the April Spring issue is February 15. Late submissions will be considered if possible.
I took over the role of Editor-in-Chief this summer and am excited and honored to be reading your submissions. If you have any questions please also direct them to that email address and they will come to me!
For more information, check out http://johnhwatsonsociety.com/the-watsonian/. As with all? most? other Holmes journals there is no compensation for your submission, but I would love to expand our diversity of voices. I know some of you have some amazing metas written and I’d be thrilled to help you turn it into an essay for print. Or art, I want your art, I’m greedy for your amazing art.
