The Association for Children's Literature in South Asia (ACLiSA) is currently soliciting entries for its upcoming blog series titled "Childhood Prets and other Premonitions" on the ghosts that populate South Asian childhoods, folklore, cultural memory and literature. We're looking for the spirits ('prets') of South Asia – the ghosts of childhoods past, if you will. The nightmares inside your heads, the monsters under your beds, zombies, chudails, bhoots that made up your bachpan. Stories that made you scream in fright or silently sent a shiver down your spine or made you pull the blanket close, eyes shut tight.
Send us your queries or contributions at aclisa.contact@gmail.com
Contemporary Education Dialogue (CED), Sage Journals (ISSN: 09731849, 22495320), has launched a special section 'Teachers, Teaching and Teacher Education' and is looking for submissions of research articles (8000-9000 words) for this new section.
The deadline for the January 2023 issue is August 31, 2022.
