Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
The Spit Bucket is a fanzine (published by 'You Don't Know') celebrating art and writing made in response to the sport of boxing. We welcome submissions from prose writers, poets and visual artists of all forms - the stranger and more experimental the better. Submissions always open. We are unable to offer payment to contributors - the zine will remain free to ensure it remains as accessible as possible. Readers will instead be asked to consider donating to the Ringside Charitable Trust, an organisation supporting ex-boxers. Submission guidelines:
Visual art – Think collage, illustrations, photos of sculpture, line drawings. All work to be formatted as A5-portrait (preferably) and in black and white only. Please include titles for your work and the media used for making, and submit your work as a jpeg file.
Prose – Up to 900 words. If you have an idea for a longer piece of writing, then please email us first with a proposal for us to consider.
Poetry – Up to 26 lines – We are particularly interested in poetry that experiments and pushes visual boundaries.
We would prefer all submissions to be previously unpublished, though you may want to share work with us from an upcoming book and that, of course, is fine.
Please send all submissions (as separate documents and not in the body of an email), along with a 25-word contributor’s bio to: [email protected]
