How to submit

Process

The subject line of your email should include the word Submission, the title of your submission, and if possible the word count. Be sure to include your email address in your contact information at the top of your manuscript. (Your contact information will be kept in the strictest confidence and not sold or spammed.) All emailed submissions will receive an auto reply email usually within a week of it being sent. If an emailed submission does not get the auto reply it is likely the submission was not received or “submission” was not in the subject line. If mailed: (we actually prefer emailed, but if you must) manuscripts must be in an easy to read format; font size 12 or 14, single sided, double-spaced. The Author’s name and address as well as a page count should be on the first page of the manuscript. All pages should be numbered. If you wish your manuscript(s) returned or acknowledged by mail, please include a self-addressed envelope, stamped, if in Canada, or include an international reply coupon if the address is outside of Canada. If you do not need your submission(s) returned, please consider including an email address for our response to your submission(s). Submissions that do not include a return email address, or a self addressed envelope with Canadian stamps or an international reply coupon, will be disposed of without reply.
