The Motherhood Anthology Project
Revisionary Arts and little somethings press will host a series of free, public workshops in writing, art, and bookmaking for mothers at the Tempe Public Library. For more information, and to register for the workshops, visit our Events page. This workshop series will culminate in the publication of a printed, handmade collection of short writings and visual artworks by workshop participants and the Arizona community. Submissions will be open to workshop participants and Arizona-based mothers beginning October 10th.
Submission Information
To submit, email your poetry, prose, and art on motherhood to littlesomethingspress@gmail.com between October 10, 2026 and February 1, 2027. Submissions are open to workshop participants and Arizona-based mothers. If you attended one of the MAP workshops, please indicate this in your email. If you did not attend the MAP workshops, but are based in Arizona, please indicate this as well. Poetry should be under one page, and prose under 300 words. Submit all written works in a single file with no more than three pieces of writing. Simultaneous submissions are accepted, but please notify us should your work be published elsewhere. Art should be submitted as a jpeg or png file.
Contributors will receive a small honorarium and a contributor copy as payment for their submissions.
The anthology will be launched at an open-to-the-community event at the Tempe History Museum, featuring readings by published writers and discussions with the visual artists. We are beyond excited to return to the community and see this project unfold.
This project is partially funded by a City of Tempe – Community Arts Grant.
General Information
In each issue, little somethings press publishes pieces of flash fiction, flash memoir, poetry, and visual art. Simultaneous submissions are accepted, but please let lsp know if your work has been accepted elsewhere.
This small independent press makes everything by hand (with love), so responses may take up to six months.
We work with First North American Serial Rights. However, all rights revert back to the author upon publication.
