GOING DOWN SWINGING CALLING FOR SUBMISSIONS

In 2010 Going Down Swinging turns 30 years old, and to celebrate the journal is producing a very special anniversary 30th edition. GDS No.30 will be launched in a series of fantastic performance events in August and September, in Australia and New Zealand.

GDS No.30 will feature new poetry, short fiction, comic art, and spoken word from around the world in a bumper book / CD edition, with some special guest editors drawn from the illustrious GDS alumni and the global spoken word community, new comissions, plus a haiku section edited by co-founder Myron Lysenko - just some of the treats in store!

GDS is now calling for submissions of poetry, short fiction / non-fiction, flash, comic art, haiku and haiga, and spoken word recordings. Head to the GDS website to download the Guidelines and Cover Sheets and send in your work, to be a part of GDS history.
