Plagiarism: We don't accept fanfiction or anything derived from preexisting work. If you are inspired by anyone, please credit them at the end of your piece. If we discover your work is plagiarized, we will immediately reject your submission and not allow you to submit for a certain period of time. We will also do our best to protect your summitted pieces from plagiarism, and will immediately notify you if plagiarism of your work has been found.

​

Language: As long as you also submit a version in English, we accept submissions in any language.

​

Profanity: Please keep your work PG-13 in terms of swearing and only use it when absolutely necessary. If we like your piece but there is too much profanity we will censor it before publishing.

​

Content: If you have any potentially triggering topics in your work, please put content or trigger warnings at the very beginning of your piece.

​

What we won't accept: We will not accept any work that is racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, ableist, antisemitic, and all other hateful isms and phobias. We also won't accept anything overly sexual, graphic, or violent. Remember: PG-13.

​

Acceptance: If your piece is accepted for the issue we will email you to let you know. If we would like you to make any changes or edits before publishing we will let you know. Make sure to check spam for any emails.

​

Rejection: If your piece(s) are rejected, it's not a credit to you or your abilities. More likely than not we feel your piece doesn't match the theme. We will email you to let you know if you are rejected. We also may reject you unless you make certain edits, and after that accept you.

​

Feedback: There's an option to request feedback on your work. This is different than editing as it is an overview of your piece. It is optional, but we still may require you to make edits in order to be published.
