Bailey's Beads Taking Submissions
Baily’s Beads, the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford’s award-winning literary magazine, is now accepting writing submissions through Feb. 20.
The magazine accepts poetry, short stories, novel excerpts, memoir, travel writing, personal essays, plays and translations. Written work should have a cover sheet with the author’s name and contact information, but the author’s name should not appear anywhere else on the manuscript.
Poetry should be single spaced, while prose should be double spaced. Writers may submit up to 20 pages. Submissions may be dropped off at 103 Blaisdell Hall or mailed to Baily’s Beads, 300 Campus Drive, Bradford, Pa., 16701.
Mandy Colosimo, a writing major from Bradford, will be the editor of the next issue. Dr. Nancy McCabe, associate professor of writing, serves as the magazine’s advisor.
Last year the magazine earned a Gold Medalist Award from Columbia University’s press association for content, organization and design, earning 993 out of a possible 1,000 points. The same issue also won a Silver Crown Award, placing it among the top 12 college magazines in the country.
It was not the magazine’s first award: in 2006, it earned a Silver Medalist Award, and in 2005 it received its first Gold Medalist Award from Columbia.
