A Note from Daphne Carr

Hello,

I'm the series editor of the Best Music Writing series, an anthology
now in its eleventh year. Each year we collect and publish the best
English-language writing on music-related topics from the year
preceding. This year’s guest editor is the esteemed critic Ann Powers.

I am writing to ask for submissions for the 2010 edition of Best Music
Writing. I seek brilliant features, essays, profiles, news articles,
interviews, creative non-fiction, fiction, book reviews, long-format
reviews, blog posts, and journal articles on musical and music
culture-related topics. I am also looking for work that doesn’t fit
into these categories—more whimsical and/or emergent forms of music
writing.

I mean the term “music” broadly to include all genres, time periods,
and performers and “writing” to mean all work published in periodical
form (print or online) in the calendar year 2009 (including “winter
2009/2010”). I regret that I cannot consider books, book chapters,
liner notes, or transcripts of broadcast journalism.

Please send your own best work, work you’ve edited or overseen, great
work of your friends and colleagues, or work that you have admired in
passing throughout the year.

I prefer to get clips as:

-email links
-Word docs
-PDFs
-hard copies of articles
-whole publications (please paper clip or post-it the pages to read)
-an email of the the author name/article title/publication title/date

If you are an editor, please limit the number of submissions to your
publication's best, most favored, most original and important works.
Please email this note to your writers too, so they can nominate their
own works.

Feel free to forward or repost this email, and to send mail multiple
times as you find more pieces that you find notable. Please send items
between now (January 5, 2010) and February 5, 2010. Please feel free
to forward this and repost it. Make sure the contact information is
contained:
