What's a Switcheroo?

A turning of the tables. In The Switcheroo, writers respond to the work of a Broadsided visual artist, rather than the other way around. This year, we have posted a piece by Douglas Culhane for you to respond to in words.

Only one response per entrant, please. 

• Poems should be 20 lines or less.  
• Prose should be 300 words or less.  
• Please include a brief bio.

 

“Scythian Radio” by Douglas Culhane. Steel, moss, copper, quartz, paper, graphite ink; 27” x 37” x 14” (some elements are hidden)

FEES: To cover operational costs, we charge a $3 fee for each submission. If, for reasons of financial hardship, you cannot afford to pay the submission fee, please send us an email at broadsided at gmail dot com.

If you'd like to bump up your contribution and help us, we would be grateful for your donation.
