Guernica Editions will be publishing a book on Québecois author Anne
Hébert for their Writers Series in 2006. New essays on any aspect of
Hébert's work are being solicited for the publication. Particular
preference will be given to studies that include more than one of
Hébert's works, or that focus on her later publications (Poèmes pour
la main gauche, Aurélien, Clara, Mademoiselle, et le Lieutenant
anglais, Un habit de lumière, Est-ce que je te derange?). All essays
will be published in English, but French submission are welcome, and
if accepted will be translated by the editor.

UPDATE: This call has been expanded to include teaching both novels and
short fiction.

Academic Exchange Quarterly, a peer-reviewed journal appearing in print and
electronic format, will include in its Spring 2005 issue a special focus on
Teaching the Novel and Short Fiction. Literature and creative writing
instructors at all levels (universities, community colleges, and high
schools) are invited to submit manuscripts to the journal.

To be considered for the Spring 2005 issue, please submit your manuscript of
2,500 to 3,000 words by November 30, 2004. (Publication in later issues is
also a possibility.) Submissions will undergo a double-blind peer review.
