Call for Submissions: Canada Writes winner to edit a book on violence in LGBTTQI relationships

From Jane Eaton Hamilton

2014 CBC Canada Writes winner Jane Eaton Hamilton is searching for works of creative non-fiction, essays, poetries, cross-genre work and fictions about battering within the LGBTTQI relationships:

Battering. A topic critical to our community with no books about it. Let’s change that! Do you know a friend who was battered by a f*ck buddy, squeeze, lover, wife, husband? Were you? Now is the time to get writing about it. The deadline of February 1, 2015 is swift approaching.

I am so pleased to be compiling an anthology about LGBTTQI battering called Never Say I Didn’t Bring You Flowers. Work is welcome from around the world, and we will strive to include as diverse a group of authors as possible.

Interested writers are invited to submit 3-5 poems or 1000-5000 words of prose. Send piece to janeeatonhamilton at shaw dot ca. For more information, please visit http://www.janeeatonhamilton.wordpress.com.

Jane Eaton Hamilton is the author of 8 books including the just released Love Will Burst into a Thousand Shapes.
