Additional info

Payment. If your work is accepted for publication, you will receive a complimentary digital copy with an offer of a 25% discount on a year’s print subscription. Our readership is primarily English, Afrikaans or isiXhosa speaking, so we accept submissions in English, Afrikaans and isiXhosa. If you want to submit material it would be sensible to read three or four issues to get a sense of what we publish.
