Spring 2027 - Reading Fee
Avalon Anthology: Awakening & Becoming
Welcome to the Spring 2027 Edition of Avalon Anthology.
Each spring, we invite writers to explore themes of transformation, hope, renewal, and personal growth. As the world awakens after winter, we're reminded that every season offers an opportunity to begin again, embrace change, and discover who we're becoming.
Whether your work reflects healing after hardship, the excitement of a new beginning, or the quiet beauty of personal transformation, we encourage thoughtful and creative interpretations of this season's theme.
We're honored to read your work and thank you for considering Jack Wild Publishing.
Theme
Awakening & Becoming
Spring is a season of possibility. It's a time of fresh starts, quiet growth, and discovering new parts of ourselves. We welcome writing that explores renewal, resilience, identity, hope, healing, transformation, self-discovery, and the many experiences that shape who we become.
The theme is intentionally broad, and we encourage writers to interpret it in their own unique way.
