We accept unsolicited submissions via e-mail. If we've solicited your work, you shouldn't be reading this. Get to work.
We do not accept simultaneous submissions. We do not accept previously published work.
To submit, send your writing in the body of an e-mail or as an attachment (.doc or .rtf both acceptable). Plain text (ASCII) is preferred as the computer hates getting sick; sitting in its bathrobe all day and eating soup makes it feel useless. Please include a bio stating your name, where we can find any previous publications of yours and your favorite kind of pie. New rule: Please tell us how you found our site.
Word count should not exceed 5,000 words unless we are serializing a longer piece.
We accept any genre of writing unless it's poorly written. If you're wondering whether or not we'll accept a certain poem or interview or rant, send it anyway. We'll likely read it. We like reading.
We will edit your work if needed, however, if the mistakes are so glaring that it's obvious you've not proofread it beforehand, we will laugh and then delete your submission.
We do accept sequential art (see: comics), photography, and other visual art. When submitting, please attach a jpeg to your e-mail. Jpeg should be no less than 200 dpi. We will fiddle with it and make it accessible for those with sub par connections to the internet.
(To be kept in mind for after the first issue is up.) We, of course, encourage you to read pre-existing issues to get a feel of the kind of work we like, but we also want original things. You will impress us by sending us something we haven't already seen. We will impress you by genuinely appreciating your work and by posting it here for the entire literate world to see.
Do not send your submissions to submissions@aforementionedproductions.com

Legal blah-de-blah. We reserve first printing rights. Other than that, all other rights are held by the author. If you should reprint anything that first appeared in apt, we ask that you acknowledge that it was seen here first. We can keep your writing on our site as long as we'd like, even in archives. We reserve the right to possibly print your piece in an anthology.
