Manticore Hybrid Writing from Hybrid Identities

A project of Sundress Publications (see other related projects).

Do not submit here! This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive.

About

This anthology aims to feature the strange and wonderful intersection between work by writers and artists of hybrid identities and the hybrid work they produce. We are especially interested in work from writers and artists of color, trans, queer, neurodivergent, or disabled writers and artists, writers and artists with invisible illnesses, and anyone else who feels their identity is itself an intersection. In short, if you believe your identity is a hybrid form that influences your craft, we want to hear from you.
