Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
We ask for a 100 word bio. Be friendly. Don't try to be cute. We're immediately turned off by hipster bios, or bios that state "I have published work in 6,000 literary magazines."
What Do You Look For In A Submission?
We are looking for work that is polished, surprising, and unique. We have been known to ask for extensive revisions if we get a piece with potential that needs several more drafts.
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
Read previous issues.
Who Is Your Ideal Reader?
Our ideal reader would be a person who is up to date and savvy about technology and contemporary literature.
