Subject: Call for mss -  Tattoo Highway

Tattoo Highway, an online journal of prose, poetry and  art, is now reading
for TH/16: "Sidekicks & Fellow Travelers."   Deadline January 15, 2008.

http://www.tattoohighway.org

GENERAL  GUIDELINES: Interpret the theme literally or loosely, as you wish.
Our tastes  are eclectic. We like fresh, vivid language, and we like stories
and poems  that are actually about something -- that acknowledge a world
beyond the  writer's own psyche. If they have an edge, if they provoke us to
think or  make us laugh, so much the better. We strongly suggest reading a
previous  issue or two before submitting.

While we particularly welcome poetry and  short "screen-reader-friendly"
prose or cross-genre pieces (< 1000 words),  we do on occasion publish longer
work.  We encourage hypertext and new  media (Flash .swf) submissions, also
photographs and original  graphics.

All readings are "blind" (authors' names and other identifiers  are removed).
Writers may submit up to 5 poems, prosepoems or flash fictions  (500 words
max), or 2 longer prose pieces. While we prefer to see work that  has not
been previously published, we do consider work that has appeared  in
small-circulation print journals.  Simultaneous submissions are fine,  but
please let us know promptly if you place a piece elsewhere.

As  always, we're featuring our contest: "A Picture Worth 500 Words."
Details on  website.

HOW TO SUBMIT: Email submissions to  submissions(at)tattoohighway.org, as
Rich Text Format (RTF) attachments or as  plain text in the body of your
message, and with TH16 in the subject line.  For hypertext and Flash
submissions, provide us with an URL where we may view  the work online. Send
graphics in .jpg format. We reserve the right to resize  large images -- a
courtesy to readers with dial-up internet  connections.
