Conzine Guidelines

The conzine for the Cleveland con will be a traditional printed zine. Over the years, conzines have attracted the most talented creators of stories, poetry, essays, and art. But it can't happen without all of you, so please put on your thinking caps and contribute. We look forward to seeing what you come up with! The guidelines for the 2013 conzine are as follows:

• Deadline for all contributions is March 31, 2013.
• Contributions relating to all seasons will be considered. Stories/poetry relating to the 3rd season will be identified as such at the beginning of the piece.
• Contributions of all ratings will be considered; G through well-written R. Stories/poetry of an R rating will be identified as such at the beginning of the piece.
• All submissions must be original, having never before been posted online or published elsewhere.
• Documents must be sent in .doc, .docx, or .odt format. Please do not send .pdf files.
• If you use a pen name, please include a note to that effect.
• Due to the expense of printing costs, we strongly suggest a page limit of 40-50 single-sided pages. There is no minimum page limit.
• All contributions may only be submitted once. All subsequent submissions for the same piece will be disregarded.
• Stories will be edited for grammar and punctuation without notifying the author. No editing for content will be done without first requesting permission from the author.
• Stories and poetry should be sent to Krista Rainey at krista_rainey@me.com
• Artwork files should be sent to Sandy Tew at metew2@msn.com. Originals can be sent to Sandy Tew, 8363 Mix Ave, Magna UT 84044
