Submission Guidelines

Interrobang accepts submissions across creative disciplines. Though we cannot guarantee publication, we treat every piece with care and consideration.

IMPORTANT STUFF

Submit online to http://interrobangzine.submishmash.com/Submit under the genre category of your piece. Please put your name, address, phone number, and preferred email address in the Cover Letter / Biography section. If you would like to leave a short biography, please do so but know that we will contact you closer to publication for an updated biography if your work is accepted.

PLEASE NOTE: By submitting, YOU GIVE INTERROBANG PERMISSION TO PUBLISH YOUR WORK in 1 (one) print edition, and online at Interrobangzine.com. Future and concurrent submission rights and all other rights are the sole property of the writer and/or artist.

NUTS AND BOLTS

Fiction, Non-Fiction, Creative Essays, and Polemical Ramblings should be no longer than 3000 words. Two 1500 word pieces are fine. Three 1000 word pieces even. But please, no more than that: We are but a small editorial board and can only read so much.

You may submit up to five Poems. We’d prefer any single poem to be under two pages in length, though we will make exceptions for the truly spectacular. No Homeric epics please. When in doubt, see the 3000-word guideline.

All Photography and Art should be submitted digitally. There are no constraints for the web, but for those who want to see their work in the print edition must submit line art, sketches, or black-and-white images with the understanding that we do not at present have sufficient funds to go above photostat/newsprint quality. Please note “For Print and Web” or “For Web Only” in your email.

Do you work with electronics, chiptunes, found sounds, short films, or other Audio and Visual work of an experimental nature? Submit! Please include an artist’s statement with a description of the project and your intent behind it.

FORMATTING

Tech specs: We ask that text submissions be submitted in .DOC or .RTF format. Photography and art should be attached as high-quality JPEGS. Music and video should be submitted in .MP3 and .MPG respectively.

We accept submissions on a rolling basis throughout the year. Our previous deadline was September 1, 2009. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us for any additional questions that aren’t covered here or in the FAQ.

Good luck!
