Kashmir Lit founded in 2008 is a platform for all those interested to write about Kashmir, particularly Kashmiri and diaspora writers. Kashmir Lit aims to:
- Enhance awareness of and be a resource on all things Kashmiri
- Create global solidarity with people interested in Kashmir
- Create writing and critical reading opportunities and mentorship through virtual and actual workshops and seminars
Kashmir Lit, the word ‘Lit’ should not be confused with being short for “Literature” as is used in popular parlance. It is to be read as a whole word which means “set afire or burning.”
Contributions are accepted on a rolling basis. Email your contributions as Word documents to editor@@kashmirlit.org or you can use the contribute form of the site.
All submissions must include a brief author bio. We would appreciate if you could furnish a headline for your work as well. No more than 3 poems per submission with bio-line. Photographs and artwork should be sent as PDF or image files. Writers retain full copyright on their work. Due to to paucity of help, we would prefer articles to be as error-free as possible. We will still copy-edit when needed. Thank you very much for considering KashmirLit as a place for expressing your thoughts. We highly appreciate your contributions.
