JOURNAL OF CREATIVE WRITING

Submissions for
ISSUE 09  //  THEME: SCIENCE are now OPEN

“Follow the science” – isn’t that what we’re told? Only what is science and how is it supposed to lead? Surely the human imagination runs ahead of science, determining the questions and aims we consider important. And what of science and religion – are they really the mortal enemies we’ve been led to believe? C.S. Lewis suggested that “In Science we are only reading the notes to a poem; in Christianity we find the poem itself.” How is science poetic, or poetry scientific? For one thing, science without imagery remains mute: no waves, fields, or minds hard-wired. Poetry, for her part, without honest attention to the world in all its depths turns blind. Each holds Truth in highest regard, while approaching from opposite ends. For our Feb 2025 issue of inScribe, we are inviting new and creative explorations of the many and varied meeting points of science and imagination – so start theorising and get scribing!

Submissions close Friday 16th December

ABOUT THE JOURNAL

inScribe is a bi-annual print and web-based journal that aims to share and inspire meaningful encounters with the world through the diverse art of creative writing. In particular, inScribe offers a voice to writers whose work is informed variously by religious faith; belief in objective truth, goodness and beauty; a sense of the sacred in the ordinary; and the perception of life (in all its rich and even unsettling detail) as gift.  READ MORE...

 ‘This is the covenant I will make with them after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their hearts and inscribe them on their minds.’ 

HEBREWS 10:16
