To submit: Send email to linda-at-literature4kids.com
No attachments please!
Stories and poems: Send your query and submission together in the body of your email. Indicate in your query whether or not your story has been published before, and if so, where. I am looking for stories that do not exist anywhere else on the Internet.
Indicate the word count at the top of your submission.
Articles: Query first.
Include a short bio I can use on the site. If your submission is accepted, a small photo would help too.
I'm looking forward to meeting you!
Submissions should receive a response within two weeks.
If your piece is accepted I reserve the right to lightly edit - usually for punctuation or to eliminate adverbs. More complex grammar/syntax problems may be sent back for revision before acceptance.
My current monthly operating budget is less than $50 so obviously I won't be able to accept everything, but I hope to be able to at least give a personal and helpful response to everyone who submits.
