    What Are We Looking For?

    • All forms of expression regardless of genre and style, though we reserve the right to modify text formatting—poetry is an exception—and resize images as needed

    How We Work:

    We will have two versions of the zine, ONLINE and PRINTED

    • There is no word limit for consideration of online publication; however, for printed publication there is a 1,000 word limit per piece. 
    • Any piece 1,000 words or less will be considered for publication in both versions, but any piece over 1,000 words will only be considered for online publication.
    • All pieces published in the printed magazine will also appear in the online version.
    • There is no limit to how many pieces one person may submit.
    • All rights are maintained by the artist upon publication.

    We understand the energy and effort you are putting into submitting your work, and we are honored and excited that you have chosen our magazine!
    With this in mind, we strive to respond to each submission within a few days, and will inform you if your piece has been selected within a week following the submission deadline.  
    Feel free to email us with any questions or concerns! It is our hope to build a community with this magazine and would love to hear from you.
