Fiction inspired by Pete Shelley and Buzzcocks, Love Bites is a collection of solicited and unsolicited work published online and offline at Dostoyevsky Wannabe and 3:AM Magazine.
In the first part, the editors approched a range of writers and asked them to respond to particular songs by Buzzcocks and Pete Shelley with a work of short-fiction/prose. Please see below for details of the second part of the book, the open submission.
Open Submission:
For sale: Spiral Scratch 7-inch single. One careful owner.
Inspired by the immediacy and brevity of the 3-minute pop song, the two-note guitar solo, and in keeping with the book’s theme, please send us your flash-fiction (150-500 words). The editors will choose 25-35 of what they consider to be the best submissions for publication in either the book itself or on 3:AM Magazine.
Please send your submission and a short bio to:
dwbuzzcocksantho@gmail.com
Closing date:
31st Jan 2019
Important Note:
Please DO NOT use Pete Shelley or Buzzcocks lyrics in your submission, this is a zero-budget operation and we can’t go paying vast sums of money to music publishers.
Love Bites is guest-edited by Andrew Gallix, Tomo é Hill and C.D.Rose.
