NOW ACCEPTING ENTRIES
one of the most anticipated and sought after
issues of the year: THE INKLING is gearing up!





In celebration of the written word, verge is accepting entries for the annual edition of The Inkling, a literary journal discovering the best in local prose, poetry and art. Named in honor of the informal Oxford literary club of the 30s and 40s, which included famed authors J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, The Inkling mirrors the desire to encourage pursuit of the written word, while providing mind-stimulating stories, essays and poems for consumption. In the 2010 edition, over 225 submissions were received and the final edition featured twenty one writers and artists. The submission guidelines are:

·   Prefer works that are previously unpublished unless the author has retained the rights to submit a previously published piece to other publications.
·   Stories or personal essays: up to 3,000 words; Poems: up to 1,000 words
·   Original art (literary cartoons, photography, paintings and drawings) may also be submitted for consideration.
·   Submit up to five selections
·   Include short biography and contact information.
·   Entries must be received by midnight on November 15, 2011.
·   Send submissions to: editor@vergelive.com or verge, P.O. Box 38, Augusta, GA 30903.  Electronic submissions are preferred.

The Inkling will be published on the first Wednesday of each January, as a part of verge. For more details, email editor@vergelive.com or call 706.951.0580.
