SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR JOURNALISTS

Try too hard to fit into a size 12
Times New Roman font
weighing in at just under 200 words
because that is the formula
for blind and readable judgement,
along with spell-check and 11/2 inch margins
unless there’s an error,
then the margins are set to 0
because there is no forgiveness in this business,
only late nights
and greasy sweaty palms
changing the typeset.

 

Author’s Bio

When not attempting to put her computer science degree to good use, Jenny Wong can be found travelling the world with her husband or stuck in her loft coaxing out her next story with hot tea and strong language. Her work can be glimpsed in The Quilliad and 3Elements Review.
