However you do it, whatever your style, we are interested in seeing your work. If you have a story to tell, consider sending it to us. We will publish the best on our website. We are also looking for short poetry and will even consider short plays for publication.
• We accept submissions and subsequently read and publish on a rolling basis.
• Suggested length for fiction is 500 words or less. But, we will consider longer works. Maximum length for poetry should be considerably less than that but we won’t specify a number. We’ll leave that up to you, the poet.
• We are looking for new material, that is, material never before published. That being said, we will consider reprints for something that fits our mission and that is outstanding in its execution. Let us know when and where it was published before.
• Simultaneous submissions are okay, just let us know immediately if the work is accepted elsewhere
• The author retains copyright of the submitted stories and/or articles. However, by submitting your work to us and our publishing it, Underwood Press LLC acquires the non-exclusive publishing rights to the work for the full term of the copyright. This means, in addition to publishing in our online journal, we may include the piece in our electronic archives. By submitting your work, you are agreeing to this statement.
• We may wish to record your piece for a podcast or include it in a later print or electronic publication. If we do, we will contact you first for permission.
• Please understand that we are new and small and therefore do not currently pay authors for work we publish. However, we also do not charge a reading fee. You may submit as often as you like.
• We may make small editorial changes in the work. These will not usually go beyond correcting typos or grammatical errors. For any substantive change, we will contact the author.
