Hot and hideous ferment to bend your spoons and make you swoon!
~Just in time for the New Year—PLANCHETTE—a new poetry chapbook by Juliet Cook with cover design by the darkly wondrous Art and Ghosts. Brace yourself or prepare for the spooky embrace of haunted girls, dusty divans, odd divinations, and rather dreadful clairvoyance. Creepily floating your way in mere weeks.
~In February 2008—wing’d—a new poetry chapbook by Kyle Simonsen. Just thinking about it makes my fingers burn until my fingerprints mutate into tiny yet very active volcanos. Buzz in the back room called this material bestial & wild & monstrous & natural & jungular & foresty & creaturific.

PLUS an upcoming new Call for Submissions (so far this is just a titillating teaser, as submissions are not being accepted yet, but soon).
Blood Pudding Press will be accepting submissions for its next one-off, multi-writer project from January 20th through March 20th 2008. The new magazine will be published some time in April 2008 and will serve as a sort of sister to [GROWLING SOFTLY], which was published in October 2007. The new magazine will be called ECTOPLASMIC NECROPOLIS.
Remember that Blood Pudding Press specializes in poetry and artsy little misfit offerings, so preference will indeed be devoted to poetry submissions. However, in addition to poetry, I will also be willing to consider poetic flash fiction, hybrids, collaborations, poetic blog excerpts/journal entries/dream blurbs, short poetic essays, and poetry chapbook reviews.
You may familiarize yourself with Blood Pudding Press sensibilities by reading any of the press’s previously released materials, but here are a few little hints as to what the editor does and does not tend to adore.
Yes to juicy, oozing, pussycentric, monstrously feminine, horrorotic, dangerous, provocative, unsettling, queasy, postmodern, feminist, and intellectually angsty.
No to dry, didactic, derivative, tame, clichéd, or vanilla pudding.
WE WANT WEIRDLY BLENDED BLOOD PUDDING UP IN HERE.
THINK OF LIVE BOMBS PLANTED IN INNOCENT CREAM PUFFS.
THINK OF METASTASIZING EVIL TWINS.
No previously published in other print or online magazines, but posted on a personal blog is okay. Simultaneous submissions are fine; just promptly inform if any of your submitted pieces are accepted elsewhere. Submit 3-5 pieces to JulietX@Bust.com either in the body or as one attachment and include a brief bio note. Feel free to let me know if you have queries. I will be accepting material from 15-30 different writers—and each accepted contributor will receive one complementary copy of ECTOPLASMIC NECROPOLIS.
