NOTICE: We are now using an online submission system and require a $3 fee. We figure the cost of postage to mail a manuscript with SASE is between $2 and $3, and there are the additional costs for paper, envelopes, ink, and time going to the post office. The company managing the system gets $1 of this fee for their services and the magazine gets $2. The cost for you, the writer, is about the same as a hard copy submission, but instead of the money going to the Postal Service, it goes to help support the very magazine in which you hope to publish. We hope this system will make the process more efficient, decrease our response time, reduce our carbon footprint, and make it easier for you and for us to track your submissions. The fees of course will help us to stay in print.
