Summary

The undefined website is a platform for new and emerging writers to submit their work, emphasizing inclusivity and a preference for unheard stories, with a focus on quality and relevance to the publication's themes.

Abstract

The undefined website, titled "Submissions," is a call for diverse content from new and emerging writers. It encourages submissions of stories, poetry, anecdotes, jokes, comics, and illustrations that resonate with people who feel out of place or out of society's norms. The platform is particularly interested in pieces that align with their updated agenda and publishing process, which can be found in a linked article. Submission guidelines are detailed, requesting an appropriate picture with proper credits, a compelling title, thorough editing, a word count between 200 and 2,000 words, appropriate tagging, and a preference for unpublished content. The website maintains a stance against hate speech and malicious intent. Writers are invited to join the community by filling out a registration form or emailing their submissions directly.

Submission Guidelines

Please credit the source underneath the image. If you don’t include attribution, we will have to send it back to you — asking for proper credits.

(Tip: Adding too many pictures is note useful, it actually distracts the reader, so be careful that the pictures you use serve a purpose and are limited in number.)

[5] We will NOT accept a piece that spreads hate or has any malicious intent

[6] Please use appropriate tags to support your piece

[7] We prefer unpublished drafts, however if you think you have published content that fits our motto — we will give it a shot.
