GUIDELINES:
Long-form Writing: for a submission to qualify, it should be part of a project that is a minimum of 5000 words. Your submission, which can be an excerpt or a complete work, should not exceed 7000 words; this can include creative nonfiction, literary journalism, fiction. Poetry submissions are limited to 20 pages, with a minimum of 16; this can consist of a single poem, or multiple. Please include, along with your submission, a 150-word synopsis. (The 150-word synopsis, to be included along with your submission, does not count towards the submission's word count). In your synopsis, be sure to identify the genre you are working in. Your synopsis should describe the complete project.
