Contributors will receive one copy of the physical book, ebook (EPUB or MOBI), and a PDF copy—just cover shipping! Once your works have been accepted, during the editorial and communication process, we will ask for your shipping information in order to provide you with your copy. If you do not communicate with us about shipping within two months of release, you will be responsible for acquiring your own copy. If you want more than one copy, you can purchase it directly from us or through the Barnes & Noble website after release.

Formatting
If you prefer a certain layout on the page, we encourage you to submit your work in PDF format. We will not be using different fonts within the anthology itself; if you would prefer your work to be in your handwriting, you are welcome to submit it in that format. If using fonts within your art or graphics, ensure that they are commercial use-friendly or we will be unable to accept them.
Author's rights
Procrastinating Writers United will apply for a copyright of the work as a whole, not the individual works therein. You will still have all the same rights to your own work, including the ability to apply for copyright yourself, which we encourage you to do. We do not ask for exclusivity of published work. More information available in our FAQ: https://pwritersu.com/faq
Additional info
Accepted works will be included contingent on collaborative edits! PWU will work to come to an agreement with the contributor; if no agreement can be reached, we will defer publication at this time. Thanks for your understanding!
