HOW TO SUBMIT
We accept previously published work. You must have the copyright, though. Please include prior public information and any relevant link if the publication is online. We want to promote other sites that publish our contributors and will include the link with your work.
We accept work that has been posted on social media. Do not provide links to social media posts. Simply note that the work appeared and on which platform.
By submitting work to The BeZine, you are confirming that you own and hold the rights to the work and that you grant us the right to publish on the blog or in the BeZine if your submission is accepted.
- Only email submissions will be read.
- Prose, poetry, and hybrid: please submit as a word processing file attachment (Word, Pages, Open Document, or RTF — NOT PDF, NOT GOOGLE DOC).
- Work must be submitted in English and properly edited. Submissions in other languages are encouraged but please forward with a high-quality English translation.
- Prose submissions should be limited to no more than 2,000 words in an attached file (Word, Pages, Open Document, or RTF — NOT PDF, NOT GOOGLE DOC).
- Flash fiction or nonfiction (750 words or fewer) is welcome, as are short stories (750–2,000 words), essays (2,000), and hybrid prose (up to 2,000 words).
- Work under 1,500 words will receive preference, as we are an online journal.
- Send a query for prose over 2,000 words that tells us why you think it belongs in The BeZine.
- Poetry submissions should be no more than three poems and total no more than 180 lines (i.e., 1 poem = 180 lines, 2 poems = 180 lines, 3 poems = 180 lines, maximum) in an attached file (Word, Pages, Open Document, or RTF — NOT PDF, NOT GOOGLE DOC).
- We prefer stanza or section breaks in longer poetry.
- We may make editorial suggestions for submitted work before we accept it.
- Check your work carefully before submitting. We may on occasion send work we like back to the writer for copyediting.
