Call for Winter 2011 submissions!

While it seems like just yesterday we were finishing up the Fall issue, we are getting an early jump on planning the Winter issue to give contributors (and us) a bit more breathing room this time around. 

Big new! Since we have had such a great response from our Fall issue (we are almost completely out!), we are increasing the run for our next issue which means...ALL CONTRIBUTORS WILL RECEIVE A FREE WINTER ISSUE! 

Contributions for the next issue must be received by December 1st. 

Our theme this time around will be "Our Bodies, Ourselves." Possible topics that could be covered under this theme include: Dress Food and Drink Exercise Safety Reproductive Rights Sexuality The Mind/Body connection Working with our hands Body image While it is encouraged to utilize this theme to inspire your contribution, we aren't limiting pieces to the theme, so if you have a different idea that you want to explore, go for it! Pieces that are related to winter and health are especially encouraged since it is such a difficult time for the majority of us here in Minnesota. If you think you have something you'd want to contribute to this issue, email us at creativeladiesarepowerful@gmail.com! ALSO: we will be offering advertising for lady-friendly/run businesses, organizations and independent creative types in the next issue at low rates. Advertising gets you space in the zine, as well on our blog. SO...if you have an etsy shop, run a business or organization or just want to get what you do out there in a more formal way, let us know. More details about advertising can be found  here, under "advertising." Note: we aren't trying to get all corporate here at C.L.A.P. by offering advertising—it's merely a way  to help cover the costs of printing, assembling and promoting what we are doing. Plus, it is a good way to help support our own independent, female-run, alternative economy.
