Soiled Nº8 – Onceuponascrapers: Call for Submissions

Onceuponascrapers will be a collection of illustrated architectural children’s stories akin to “picture books” that narrate contemporary ideas about architecture and the built environment. We believe that the possibilities for architectural writing for all ages might be amplified by challenging the conventions and tone of voice of “grown-up” behavior.

SOILED – No. 8 – Onceuponascrapers invites illustrated short fiction, nonfiction, fables, fairy tales, poetry, and plays, among many other formats borrowed from children’s literature. All submitted contributions must include illustrations or visual content in addition to text; we also welcome illustrated or visual narratives that operate without any text. Please send a complete manuscript, including all text and images/illustrations. Text should not exceed 500 words. We welcome collaborative teams of writers, illustrators, and/or architects or other creative disciplines. While selected manuscripts will go through a round of edits and revision, we will not accept abstracts or substantially incomplete manuscripts for this call for submissions.

Please submit your full content (no abstracts) by Friday, July 5, 2019 to: MTdsbltmYm05bGhiZV5dc2JnXidoa2A=
