Submission Guidelines
We are open for fiction and poetry submissions for 2010.
For those of you interested in submitting poetry, here is what we're looking for:
In September “The Decisive Moment” is what it's all about.
October is wrapped up with haunting goodness, so don't bother. We're good to go.
November: “Regret For Dinner”
December: “Empty Rooms”
January 2011: “Absent Light”
February: “Sweet Nothings”
March: “Forget About It”
April: “Fools” (Get it?)
Please include a short bio and your three most recent publishing credits with online links if applicable.
Any form of written work is welcome for the Front View Fiction. Please send us your best, plus a short bio and/or your three most recent publishing credits. We do have a word limit of 5000, so please send an inquiry first if your work is longer than this. We also do not accept sample chapters or extracts from novels.
We ONLY accept original written work, except by specific invitation.
Please check out a copy of the magazine before you submit to get an idea of the type of work we publish. ( See side bar )
A note about "previously published": Print publication is obvious. Online publication includes your personal website or blog, or anyone else's website or blog, whether or not it represents itself as a publication. In other words, if it can be found with a search engine, it's published. Workshops and similar forums are, of course, exempt -- we use them and love them, too.
We DO NOT accept simultaneous submissions.
If you're not sure what this means, write us and ask.
We DO accept attachments.
Submissions in the body of the email are also welcome, especially for short works, and poems without complicated formatting. If you send attachments, please use a format that can be read by MS Word. Poets, please put all your poems in a single document! Mac users: save your work in rich-text format and be sure the filename includes the .rtf extension, for us poor misguided PC users.
Due to the amount of submissions, work sent without a brief cover letter or introduction will be dismissed.
