WHAT TO EXPECT IF WE ACCEPT
Submissions are reviewed approximately once in two weeks, and the process is selective. Due to high volumes, we’re unable to respond to all submissions.

Like any publication, we’re unable to give feedback or respond to all queries about why a submission may not have been selected for publication. For articles, stories or letters we do choose to publish please know that the following terms and conditions do apply:

Additionally, we may already have ideas or articles/letters/stories in progress that are similar to yours, and we are not responsible for any similarities between your submission and our current or future content or actions; any such similarities are purely coincidental.
