*Kinaara* is an upcoming web-based literary magazine for the youth in South Asia and the diaspora. *Kinaara* is a dream and an experiment by a group of young people. It is also an attempt to look for a common South Asian cultural awareness where we share our opinions and artistic expressions with other young people like us.
*The first edition of Kinaara will be published on July 1, 2009.* The permanent website address of the magazine will also be released with it. There is a journal at http://kinaaranews.blogspot.com/ where all the team members will update on the work they are doing. --- *WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR::* - Original, exciting and thought-provoking work from people below 30 with a South Asian connection. - Anything that makes our brains tingle! Essays, articles, poetry, short stories, comics, photo essays, artwork, ramblings, a standalone chapter from the novel you're writing... If you think the world needs to see it, we're interested in it. - If you have a work or idea that doesn't fit any of the above categories, write to us directly and we'll get back to you. *UPCOMING EDITIONS::* *JULY 2009:* No theme, everything welcome. Deadline is June 15. *AUGUST 2009:* Tentative theme is CONFLICT. Interpret broadly, as long as you remember the focus. Deadline is July 15. *HOW TO SUBMIT:: * - For now, we are receiving all correspondence at kinaaram...@gmail.com. - Writing is best sent as an MS Word (.doc) or Text (.txt) document. If it isn't too long, pasting in the mail body works too. - Images are loved as JPEG (.jpg) files that don't exceed the size of 500 kbs each. - Mention your name as you'd like to be credited. Add a two-sentence introduction to yourself. We're interested in knowing where you're from and what you like doing, but you're free to fill your introduction with anything you want to tell. -- Please help us spread the word by passing on this message to your friends, list-servs or just about anyone you think will appreciate it. Thank you, Monidipa Mondal, Student, Dept. of English, Jadavpur University, Calcutta, on behalf of the Kinaara team. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "humanrights movement" group.
