Requirements:
The Editors use a blind submissions process. Therefore, do not include your name on any the individual piece(s) you submit; include only the title of the piece(s) as identified on your submission form.
- Text: Documents must be saved as Rich Text Format (.rtf) files, using Times New Roman font size 12 only. Interstice does consider texts written in other languages. English translations are accepted, but are printed at the discretion of the editors.
- Artwork: Images must be saved as .jpg files. Images should be resized down to 2550 pixels along the longest side (8.5 inches @ 300dpi) only. Note: the submission form is limited to a combined 20MB for all attached files.
- Short Bio: Please include a brief biography (no longer than 75 words please) about yourself. If your work(s) are accepted, your biography will be featured on the Contributor list. If you do not include a biography, your name will not be listed on the Contributor list, even if your work(s) are accepted. Use third-person point of view when composing your biography. Biographies may be edited for surface errors.
Failure to follow directions will result in submissions not being forwarded to selection committees.
Selected works reflect the aesthetic judgment of the blind committee members and the editors. No work is guaranteed publication. All works are subject to editing for surface errors and clarity.
Please double-check for grammatical and typographical errors prior to submitting your work. The editors are not responsible for publishing errors contained in submitted items.
