If your writing is inspired and compelling, in any genre -- and you believe it may suit our venue -- we welcome your e-mailed submission. Forego the trite and the mundane: Give us something with personality -- with an edge! -- and we just might publish it here for everyone's edification. (We will edit, if necessary, but we trust that you will endeavor to provide a 'clean' submission.) 1b. We will consider first-time, simultaneous, and previously published submissions. 1c. Priority will be given to Canadian writers, but not to the total exclusion of others. Please, proudly indicate your citizenship and your current country of residence. 1c. We accept book / manuscript excerpts. Do not submit entire books / manuscripts. 1e. DO NOT SEND AS AN 'ATTACHMENT' ! INSTEAD, "SELECT" AND "COPY" FROM YOUR TEXT DOCUMENT , THEN "PASTE" IT TO THE BODY OF YOUR OUTGOING E-MAIL. For those who are not familiar with "Copy & Paste" functions: In your word processor's or text editor's Edit menu, click 'Select All'; then click 'Copy'. When you click 'Copy', your 'selected' text is invisibly copied to your system's Clipboard utility. When you then click "Paste" in your outgoing e-mail, the previously copied text will be transferred to the body of that e-mail just as if you had re-typed it. 1f. You may submit often, to a limit of 4 items per month and 1500 words maximum per item. If Items are published in serial installments (at our discretion) such as two-part stories, each part or installment will be considered a separate item, and payment will be made accordingly. 2.

The Editor will determine the most appropriate category and placement of posted items. The Editor reserves the right to create appropriate categories without notice to published writers; and, further, the Editor may move any posted items to whichever category or section is then deemed by the Editor to be the most appropriate placement of those items. 5. PAYMENT: 5a. YOU WILL BE PAID ON-LINE through the quick and secure PayPal® payment service -- You must have a PayPal account set up in order to receive our payment.
