600 words or less, occasionally longer articles are accepted.
Photos and artwork to accompany your article need to be sent as jpg file attachments, 300 dpi at 4” x 6”.
We reserve the right to edit content for length or clarity without permission from the author. Editing to change meaning will be done with the author’s permission. Articles are not sent to authors for review prior to publication unless specifically requested.

Publication is not guaranteed. Once the submission due date for an issue has passed, the most promising of the submissions are sent to our editorial board for consideration. The decision-making process takes about three months with the quality of individual pieces, and the amount of material that will fit in the issue being the deciding factors. Authors are notified whether or not their submission was chosen for publication at the time the issue is released.
