THRESHOLDS
We halt at thresholds; we step over them. We edge back from thresholds; we move past them. We can reach our thresholds; pain and hurt can exceed them. Thresholds become a marker—in space, time, and metaphor—sometimes a pause point, sometimes a pressure point, sometimes a passing point.
For this issue of Multiplicity, we want to hear about the moments of standing in-between or on the verge, the moments of choosing not to enter or turning back, and the moments of pressing forward to reveal what’s on the other side.
We accept essays, profiles, and narrative nonfiction up to 2,999 words, poems of any length (up to three), and original photography (up to five photographs). All accepted submissions are paid: $45 for prose work, $15 per poem, and $15 per photograph. $3.00 submission fee is waived upon request.
Take us to the threshold.
