GENERAL (UN-THEMED) SUBMISSIONS accepted year-round. We try to respond to all submissions as soon as possible. We read general submissions year-round, but depending on the time of year, it is not uncommon for a response to take up to 6 months.
What we're looking for:
* Strong reportage
* Well-written prose, rich with detail and a distinctive voice.
* An informational quality or instructive element that offers the reader something to learn (an idea, concept or collection of facts, strengthened with insight, reflection and interpretation.)
* A compelling, focused, sustained narrative that is well-structured, makes sense and conveys meaning.
Guidelines for Submission:
* Submissions should be typed, double-spaced, 5,000 words maximum (with word count clearly marked).
* Submissions to special issues should be clearly marked.
* Please do not send multiple submissions.
* Please do not send queries. We consider only complete essays.
* Faxed or emailed submissions will not be accepted.
* Please include a self-addressed, stamped envelope for response. We regret that we cannot return manuscripts.
