Become a Featured Author in Our Next Anthology

Have you ever seen a story in the lines and colors of a painting? Have a sculpture’s curves and shadows ever conjured a poem in your mind?

Artwork inspires some of our favorite poems, paintings, and songs. A poem might describe specific images in a painting. People in a photograph could feature in a short story. An essay may explore a sculpture’s tumultuous history, or a flash fiction piece may invent one.

Your inspiration can be a painting, sculpture, photograph, mural, installation, etc. We want your poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and essays (1,500 words max). Of course, rough drafts are welcome! As long as your piece is inspired by a single work of art, the possibilities are limitless. Fifteen finalists will be published in a printed anthology alongside original artwork and celebrated by friends, family, and fellow authors at a book release party and signing.
