CALL for Submissions: MYTH, Magic & Ritual
The theme of Issue #9 is MYTH, Magic & Ritual. One way of thinking about this theme is to consider the ways in which myth has been used–and continues to be used–as a means of explaining the world. But of course, we look forward to discovering how your submissions will expand or contradict what we had in mind when choosing this theme.
