First and
foremost, let it be known that we want to read your work (or look it at in
awe, if you're an artist). Once we read it (or look at it in awe), we may
even want to publish it on this site. To the right are some guidelines that will
help you get on our good side, so to speak. We look forward to seeing your
work!
|
Prose:
>
3,000 words
maximum (that should be more than enough)
>
Paste your work
into an e-mail (it's easier to deal with)
>
Do not submit
previously published work (it just looks kind of bad)
Poetry:
>
Send up to five
poems at a time (they should be your best poems)
>
Paste your work
into an e-mail (again, it's easier to deal with)
Art:
>
We do not know
much about art (send us anything you make)
>
E-mail your
loveliest art as a JPG or GIF file (we like these formats)
Biography:
>
Please include a short paragraph about yourself (the world wants it)
Response Time:
>We respond to submissions fast (within a few days, most likely, but give us 30)
Rights:
>
Unfortunately, there is no payment at this time (we wish we could pay you)
>
If your work is accepted, it is automatically copyrighted upon publication, and you grant us one-time
rights to publish your work and archive it online (for-ev-er)
>
If a piece of yours is reprinted, please mention it appeared in decomP first (it's nice)
Simultaneous Submissions:
>
These are fine as long as you notify us when another market picks up your work (we simultaneous submit, too)
What We Don't Want:
>
Genre fiction (horror, erotica, romance, sci-fi, etc.)
>
Miscellany (interviews, letters, lists, reviews, etc.)
Submissions are open! E-mail your submissions to decomp.magazine AT gmail DOT com |
