Stephene: All writers are credited when the journal is published. The names are only omitted during the editorial process so as to avoid any possible bias. The pieces to be selected are chosen by members of YWS who will almost certainly have friends submitting.

There will be a submissions system on the site. It's not ready right now, though, but I'm sure there will be an announcement when it is.

The submissions area will be a completely separate area, like the Nominations and Clubs areas. As for the announcement, it will probably be made in the usual way, via a post in the Info Desk or as a Global Announcement (like Trident's contest).

The submission form is complete!
journal/submit.php

I'll make a bigger announcement once I have an About page done. But, you can begin submitting now.

Sorry for the questions, I have another one:

Do I get it right?

For example:

I can pass an artwork, a poem, and a short story...

BUT

i cannot pass two artworks and a poem,

or two poems and a short story

blah blah

From Nate, on page two of this thread, emphasis mine:
Submission of Multiple Works: We do allow multiple submissions, although we're going to do it differently this year than in past years. Previously, you could submit up to three poems. This year, you may only submit one poem. This way, you have to pick the best one. Also, you may also submit one short story and one piece of artwork on top of that. So all told, you could submit one poem, one short story, and one piece of artwork/photo if you wanted to. However, only one at most will be accepted.


In short, yes.

Hey! :)

The story I want to submit is .WPS because Microsoft Word currently will not work for me. How do I go about submitting or what should I do?

Thanks.

That's Microsoft Works, right? If so, I'm pretty sure you can save the document in .RTF format, which is accepted.
