Submission Guidelines and Legal
Here at Bunbury Magazine we encourage you to send anything from poetry to artwork, flash fiction to graphic story, life writing to photography. We are looking at reviews and non-fiction articles too so anything goes. We do, however, have some guidelines when submitting your work to us.
Please email all submissions to [email protected]. In the email subject please write ‘BUNBURY SUBMISSION’. When you are emailing, please introduce yourself in the email. Even give us a little bio of yourself too! Please send any writing in a Word 97-2003 document in 12pt Arial. Also, please remember to put your name at the bottom of each piece so we know that it belongs to you!
All work published in the magazine remains the copyright of the author/photographer/artist. All we ask is a period of 2 months between issues where we hold exclusive rights to the piece(s) after which you are more than welcome to try and have your work published elsewhere. Please do not submit pieces which have previously been published elsewhere. Also, please do not submit any pieces which are currently being considered for a prize in its field. For students, please do not submit any work that is currently being marked as part of an assessment as it may cause issues with plagiarism and jeopardise your studies.
For artists/photographers/graphic novelists: Please submit any work as 800×600 jpeg images in 300 dpi if and where possible. This is the optimum for our layout editors to work with. Any work submitted will be considered on loan from the artist. We are not purchasing any rights to the artists’ pieces which remain their own.
As for what to submit in each category, here are some more specific details:
Flash fiction – 250 words and 3 submissions
Short stories – 1000 words and 1 submission
Poems – 3 submissions
Articles – 1500 words and a 200 word synopsis of chosen subject. 1 submission
Reviews – 500 words 2 submissions.
Artwork/photography – send as JPEGs. 6 submissions each with an accompanying synopsis.
Art work submitted to the magazine will be considered ON LOAN from the artist for a period of two months from the issue release dates from one publication to the next. We will use the cover photo for all social media to promote the magazine.
We may not use all pieces submitted as it may be that one piece in particular that stands out. We may however love all of it and feature you as artist of the issue.
All submissions should be in-keeping with the theme of the magazine which will be given in the back of all issues UNLESS, the piece(s) are of an exceptionally high quality.
Of course, we would never ask an author or artist to limit the quality of their work in order to keep within the limits listed here. They are merely guidelines to help you aim what you are creating to try and keep in with what our vision is for both our own and your progress.
We hope this has been helpful and we are looking forward to hearing from you all soon.
The email address to submit to us is [email protected] or you can use the 'Get in touch!' tab above if you have any general queries.
