Submissions are now open for the 4th issue of Sonorus: Feminist Perspectives on Harry Potter!

Sonorus is a compzine, edited by three UK-based Harry Potter fans and feminists. We can accept:

Articles

Opinion pieces

Fan fiction (on a related theme)

Fan art (on a related theme)

Some prompts to consider:

Female role models in the series Feminism/ social justice in the Wizarding World Your favourite character – can they be seen as a ‘feminist’ character? Gender roles in the series The differences between the books and the films and their impact on gender Race in the series Fan fiction – the interpretation of characters by fans and how gender is affected by this Gender and careers in the series LGBT issues in the series/the fandom Women in sport in the series Femininity/masculinity in the series Gender in relation to good vs. evil Motherhood in the series Relationships in the series and in fan fiction J.K. Rowling as a female writer This list is by no means exhaustive, and we are interested in any submissions related to gender in the Harry Potter books, film and fandom, and connected to the series as a cultural phenomenon! Due to not wanting to replicate ideas we will only be able to print articles which are different from those featured in previous issues (a list of pieces from issue one is now available on the shop page). All other submissions (as long as they are not discriminatory in any way) will be printed in this or a future issue of the zine. We welcome submissions from people of any gender, and from new writers as well as people who submitted to previous issues. Please send submissions and questions to sonoruszine@gmail.com. The deadline for submissions is 30th September 2016.

We look forward to hearing from you!
