The Fiction Project
A literary project
We have plenty of sketchbooks. Now we're looking for authors, writers, 'zine makers, and children's book illustrators to create fictional based narratives and much more to be added to the library.The idea
This project is a sister project to The Sketchbook Project. The Fiction Project sets its sights on literature and creating a narrative book that fuses writing with art.
Each book submitted will be housed at the Brooklyn Art Library in Red Hook.
Your Book
The only rules are that your book must be 51% writing based, the journal we send you is used in some way, and that it stays the same size when closed (5.5x8.5 inches). We encourage mixing writing with art.
Grab a friend
You don't have to be alone in this! Art House is all about collaboration, and this is no exception. Find someone to illustrate while you do the writing or vice-versa. Or work on all the areas together. Grab an entire group of friends and pass the book around. Nothing is off limits.
The theme
When you sign up, your book will be randomly assigned a theme. This is just a guideline to give you a gentle push in a direction. You are by no means absolutely bounded to this theme. You can even be as loose as using words from the theme in your story.
