Orbis - special submissions request

This is one that has got my brain buzzing. Carole Baldock at Orbis is looking for capital poems for Orbis 145, Special Issue on the themes of Culture or Liverpool.

[More:]

Or from poets with some link to the City, eg, used to play in a band there when I was in Uni -but not if your neighbour used to live near somebody who used to know somebody who said their sister’s friend may have gone out with Ringo…

Deadline: September 30

UK
4 poems by post with SAE (C5 preferred);
2 pieces of prose, maximum 1000 words (extracts can also be considered);
please state word count
Article suggestions also welcome

Overseas
2 poems or 1 piece of prose by email; no attachments
Please include address in email.

Hi Sarah,

We'd like to feature a link to your entry about the Orbis writing competition on the BBC Liverpool08 homepage at www.bbc.co.uk/liverpool08.

However, I notice that the link you give is broken. I think you meant to link to http://kudoswriting.wordpress.com/ ?

If you wouldn't mind updating the link so our visitors will be able to find the submission details, we'll link to you.

All the best

HB, BBC Liverpool08
