| Legnth - Not more than 15 double spaced pages in 12 pt Format - PC Microsoft Word 98 or RTF(Royal Text Format) pasted into the text of an e-mail. I will only take attachments from writers who have been with us for a few years. Content - We only ask that you take into account some of our under 16 writers, (talent is no respecter of age,) I have to. I will not post erotica or gore, although some private ctitiques are there for the asking. Tips - PLEASE send your stories just as you would like them posted. Not is bits and pieces with mixed fonts and a question about by-line. Clearly seperate it from any personal notes to me, or the group. If you have some words you would like posted in the way of introduction, just clearly delineate them. We especially like to know what problem in particular you would like help with. That gives us a starting point. SO.. We have an e-mail with: a personal note Posted content (12 pt Courier new.) -Introduction -Title -by-line -Story excerpt -clear ending Poetry can have by-line on the bottom as is standard format. We want any type of art. We would love to branch out into the visual arts. We also find art in nonfiction. Please don't send the entire story or poetry collection,etc. Unless you are now publishing it on-line and you do not wish to sell first rights. That is to say - Published on-line is Published and you cannot try to sell FNASR if you have posted the story in a market that has a circulation of 500 or more. We have had over 500 hits over the last few years. So you may be able to use that loophole, but I'd rather not press the issue. Pat |
