The Friends of Arthur Machen have announced a competition for essays on Machen submitted to their journal, Faunus. There will be a £200 prize for the best essay, and two runner-up prizes of £100 each. All three prizes will also include a year's free membership of the Friends. It is open to non-members: anyone except Committee members of the Friends may contribute.
Essays should be a minimum of 4000 words, and may concern any subject likely to be of serious interest to members. The Faunus Editors, James Machin and Timothy Jarvis, will be the judges, and submissions should be made to:
faunus(dot)editor(at)gmail(dot)com (replacing the words in brackets by the relevant symbols)

what is the deadline?
ReplyDeleteDeadline?
ReplyDeleteNo hard deadline, but essays should be submitted by early September for consideration for the autumn 2019 issue.
ReplyDeleteThis questions perhaps answers itself, as word-count has clearly been mentioned, but are the editors open to the possibility of a visual essay?
ReplyDeleteYes, certainly open to that possibility, though it would have to be something we could accommodate within the current perameters of page size, print quality etc.
DeleteBest wishes,
James Machin, co-editor
In which case, please allow me to inquire as to page size, dpi & page limit ( in lieu of word count ).
ReplyDeleteThanks,
I.
