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.

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.
