Writers can help. If you’re an Alaskan, or you’ve written about
submit your creative work, or a portion of it, to Alaska Shorts. Here’s how it
works:
- Entries
must conform to our editorial policy. We publish poetry and prose. Either the author or the subject
matter must be Alaskan. You may submit an entire work, or an excerpt. We
will consider no more than two submissions per author within the same
month. - We
need your real name and real email address. - Absolutely
no more than 800 words per entry, excluding the bio paragraph, which must
be fewer than 100 words. - Entries
must be your own original work. You keep the copyright, but by submitting
you’re giving us permission to post. - Not
all submissions will be published. The editors at 49 Writers reserve the right
to select and to publish at their sole discretion, on a space available
basis. If your work doesn’t get posted, don’t assume we don’t like it. It
simply may not fit our editorial needs or schedule. - One
small jpg photo may be attached with your entry. - Submissions
are accepted on a rolling basis. Email to 49Writers@gmail.com with the words
“Alaska Shorts” in the subject line. We accept only Word documents or
submissions embedded in the email text. Submissions MUST be single spaced,
Times New Roman, with NO paragraph indentions (space between paragraphs).
The bio paragraph, if any, should come at the end, and it must be in
italics. If the formatting is not
correct, your submission will not be considered. - We
will make every attempt to notify you prior to posting your submission,
but we cannot guarantee to do so. You can maximize your readership by
sharing the link to your published post with your social media and email
contacts. - We
reserve the right to edit your work but do not promise to do so. We do NOT
make corrections or changes after the post has been published unless the
error is our own, and we do not correct based on appearance alone, as the
Blogger platform suffers from occasional glitches in formatting that are
beyond our control. - We
will make every effort to acknowledge receipt of your submission, but our
volunteer staff is unable to respond to follow-up queries. If your work
has not been posted within six months of submission, feel free to
re-submit.
