Past

"We live in a society absolutely dependent on science and technology and yet have cleverly arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. That's a clear prescription for disaster." - Carl Sagan

"It is strange that only extraordinary men make the discoveries, which later appear so easy and simple." - Georg C. Lichtenberg

"Science and technology revolutionize our lives, but memory, tradition and myth frame our response." - Arthur Schlesinger

Current Theme: Water. Tell us about climate change and water scarcity. About Puerto Rico and Flint. Send us your memories of drinking from the hose and building community. Show us ice and steam and pressure. Teach us about ocean acidification and microplastics and especially, what can be done about them. Inspire us with whales and seabirds, but remind us about the little guys too—the anglerfish, mussels, and tube worms. iltreview.com/submit . . . . #callforsubmissions #amwriting #amwritingpoetry #poetry #nonfiction #creativenonfiction #visualart #water #ocean #environmentalscience #oceanacidification #flintmichigan #writing #literaryjournal #literature #literarymagazine #submissions #publication #watershed

In Layman’s Terms is seeking submissions with a theme of innovation–stories that showcase ingenious designs, technology, and structures, whether made by man or nature. We want to know how technology helps and hurts. From duct tape to tool use by New Caledonian crows, we want to know about inventive solutions to problems. . . . . . #callforartists #callforsubmissions #callforsubmission #submissionsopen #passengerpigeon #paintings #painting #art #artistsoninstagram #artist #innovation #inventions #invention #ingenious #literarymagazine #literaryjournal #inlaymansterms #poetry #creativewriting #creativenonfiction #nonfiction #nonfictionnovember #nanowrimo ##visualart #photography #pigeon #birdsofinstagram #newcaledoniancrow #experimentalart
