Submissions are officially open for the seventh issue of The Paramanu Pentaquark! Read all about it here, and submit your work!


Writers and artists from around the world have a new publication opportunity through the Michigan-based Gothic Funk Press.

Gothic Funk Press is now accepting submissions for the seventh issue of its arts journal, The Paramanu Pentaquark.
The journal will be published online and available to the public for free. Submissions can be uploaded to the Gothic Funk Press website at: https://www.gothicfunkpress.com/submissions-parapenta/.

As a free publication with volunteer editors and designers, submitting artists are compensated with publication credit and retain all rights to their own work.

The Paramanu Pentaquark features literature, visual art, music, and mixed media submitted as Images, Sounds, and Words. The journal accepts submissions created in a “Gothic Funk” style: experimental work featuring degrees of romanticism, darkness, depth, and swagger. Please visit our websites at http://gothicfunkpress.com and http://gothicfunk.org to learn more about this aesthetic.

The Paramanu Pentaquark is committed to international perspectives and in the past has published artists from Australia, Egypt, Finland, Ireland, Israel, the Netherlands, Serbia, South Africa, the United Kingdom, the United States, and elsewhere.

Submitted work will be evaluated by three editors. The most recent issue of The Paramanu Pentaquark can be viewed online at https://www.gothicfunkpress.com/parapenta/06/.

Gothic Funk Press is an independent publisher based in Flint, Michigan. In addition to the publication of new work, the Press has partnered with the Flint Public Library to bring free writing workshops to the community, and has coordinated community engagement events such as the Flint Order of Orpheus and the Flint Area Scavenger Hunt.
