Publication Rights
We accept only original works from individuals aged 13 and above. Please do not submit work that is not yours for legal liabilities. We uphold First North American serial rights (FNASR), meaning we hold the right to publish your work (cannot be published anywhere else until after our own publication), and then the rights return to you.Please let us know if your work has been selected for another magazine before our own publication.
-
Yes, we absolutely do—in the categories of poetry, prose (fiction and nonfiction), visual art, and even videos/songs/audio, and other multimedia art.
-
As a non-profit magazine, we currently do not have sufficient donations/funds to financially reward each selected writer or artist. However, if you are located in the United States and are published in any of our in-print issues, we will do our best to mail you a copy.
Please note that a free copy of our print issue is not guaranteed due to high printing costs.
It is simply an honorary token of our appreciation.
