start submitting for the next edition!

In the last edition of (frankly) we included a few writing prompts to get the ball rolling for all you creative minds out there.

post your submission in our blog or email them directly to us. comment on other submissions. the best submissions will appear in the next edition.

If walls could...
find a wall, or a wall segment and cover it (preferably one you own).
Use whatever materials you want. Transform it into a different
reality, a painting, or a layer of stories. Then, take a picture of
your finished art and post it on the (frankly) blog. The finished
product will be the photograph, so the space needs to be fairly well
lit.

found?
create and submit a faux found item. check out the foundmagazine.com
for ideas, the more comedic and outlandish, the better!


early influences...

recreate a piece of art from your parents house. work from memory and
reinterpret the art from your notably older and more profound (?) point of
view. feel free to include a description of the art you're
interpreting.
