Issue four of An Capall Dorcha is open for submissions
An Capall Dorcha is now open for submissions, with a deadline of Monday 16 January.
The journal, which features regular contributors alongside those responding to open calls, accepts anything that can be defined as art or writing.

An Capall Dorcha welcomes Irish language submissions, and pieces which combine text and visual work.
Issue Four
For Issue 4 the journal seeks work which delves into the unreal and the unexpected.
“We welcome anything that looks at the mildly surreal – we want to feel like the rug has been pulled out from under our feet, that all is not what it seems. How you choose to interpret that is up to you – we are not asking for sci fi or weird fiction (although we are not adverse to this!). We are asking for your more playful, mischievous, rule bending and rule breaking pieces – your experimental work.”
