CALL for ENTRIES: Cover Art

a HUNGRY summer

I’ve had my head down working and planning and growing.  How about you?  Spring always makes me take a second look at my process, while summer makes me kick into production mode.  What are you doing to support your work?  I am contemplating meal kits and taking a day off from the studio.  I know that doesn’t make a lot of sense at first glance. But lunch is the bane of my daily schedule.  Just when I hit a creative stride, it is time for some sort of meal prep for lunch.  I live in a house with folks with dietary restrictions, and everyone eats lunch at home.  So, I’ve been exploring options.  Take out takes just as much time to pick up, and delivery is cost prohibitive.  A lot of meal kits are labor intensive despite arriving with pre-prepped foods, and many of them are the wrong quantity or, again, cost-prohibitive.  I’ve found one (Hungryroot & no, this is not sponsored) I think I am going to give a try.  The ingredients look good, the sizing is right, the cost is manageable.  I am excited about getting lunch off my plate, so to speak.

One of the other big stumbling blocks for me is juggling my boring-but-necessary household tasks with my work schedule. Finding time. I find it hard to work creatively when I am encumbered with a list of non-creative tasks to do at home.  My husband more than carries his half of the burden, but someone still has to do my half, ha.  So, I’ve been practicing taking one day off from the studio and trying to cram all of the household tasks I can into that day –laundry, appointments, meal planning, grocery shopping.  It is a work in progress.  I’ll be sure to give you an update before summer’s end.  In the meantime, I’ve had two acceptances for publication in two different magazines, and I am inspired by the positive attention it has drawn to my work and added to my social media reach.  So, I am offering a few publication calls this week.  I am running close on deadlines, so don’t delay in submitting your work.

Check out this Call for Entries from New England Review (Print & Digital Publication) for Cover Art.  There is an additional call for artwork for use on their website on the same page. This is a reputable publication option, with artist payment (albeit tiny) and little to no risk.  Is this a good fit for you?
