Maternal Spark webzine seeks flash fiction from writing moms

Deadline: Ongoing

Type: Call for Submissions

Website: http://maternalspark.com/wp/?page_id=336

Looking for: Flash Fiction - No more than 500 words from moms or pregnant women only

Accepts: E-mail Submissions

From their site:

Maternal Spark is now accepting Flash Fiction submissions. Pieces should be no more than 500 words and must be a complete story from beginning to end with characters and a plot. Please note that while Maternal Spark is all about Creative Motherhood – your flash fiction can be about whatever topic you like. In fact, I encourage you to write about something other than Motherhood.

Please copy and paste your flash into the body of an email and send it to: heddy.e[at]gmail[dot]com

Include: Name, email address, link to your blog or website and short, 50 word bio.

Use the subject line “Flash Fiction“.

At this time, Maternal Spark is only accepting the writing of Moms. If you are not a mom (or pregnant) – I’m sorry you’ll have to try again later.

You will receive a response to your submission within 60 days. Please don’t worry about technical details too much. I’m really just looking for great stories.

I look forward to reading your work. Submit away!
