We're back!
Capilano University’s literary magazine, The Liar, IS BACK! We are opening our annual Writing and Design Contest to solicit submissions for our 2025 issue. This year’s theme is METAMORPHOSES. Radical or tiny changes, mass evolutions or sudden rebirths. Tell us about the beauty, or the horror, of transformation. Show us how to achieve wholeness, and then how to self-destruct. We invite you to submit your original work—short stories, prose, poetry, art, music, etc.—that will change us too.
This year, we are looking for submissions that play with form, space, and colour, so don’t be afraid to break artistic and literary rules. Looking to submit short films, music, or other forms of art? We have a third category for miscellaneous Liar submissions, which is also available to people outside of Capilano University.
Writing and design submissions received before November 8 are eligible for a $500 prize in their respective categories.
