Submission guidelines

*Your story must be true (no fiction, please).
*It should be previously unpublished.
*Aim for 800-1000 words in length.
*Familiarise yourself with the kind of pieces we run. Often, they focus on a single incident or theme in the
life of the writer – dramatic, moving or humorous – and the events described made the writer re-evaluate
his or her life in some way. And remember that a well-told tale still has a beginning, a middle and an end!
*Do not send us original or irreplaceable material. We cannot return submissions.
*We cannot give feedback or acknowledge receipt.
We prefer electronic submissions. Fill out the form below or
