SUBMISSIONS FAQ
WHAT DO I SUBMIT?
Here at Your Small Moments, we want to read your short stories and poems!
WHERE ARE MY SUBMISSIONS GOING?
Right into our inbox and then straight to our hearts after we read them! If accepted, we will let you know, and then your piece will be in our latest issue of Your Small Moments -- as soon as we finish our coffee!
WHAT IS A COVER LETTER? HOW DO I WRITE ONE?
A cover letter is a small introduction to your piece and who the lovely author is -- you!
We have provided a sample on the left. Please include your name (real or "pen name"), a small summary of your piece including its overall me meaning, your past publications (if any), and a small description of who you are!
CAN I SEE A SAMPLE OF THE KIND OF WORK YOU ARE LOOKING FOR? ARE THERE ANY KIND OF RULES OR RESTRICTIONS ON THE WORK I CAN SUBMIT?
We are not looking for any one kind of story. We would like poetry and short stories, real or fictional, that are applicable to our issue's theme. We would like any short story submission to be under 500 words and any poetry submission to be under 300 words for the sake of space.
Please refrain from derogatory language that refers to one's race, gender identity, sexuality, or religion in a negative and/or inflammatory way.
HOW MANY SUBMISSIONS CAN I COMPLETE?
We will take a maximum of two pieces of any kind at a time.
