We closely evaluate each submission we receive for adherence to our standards and guidelines as well as marketability and audience. In fiction, we are looking for uniqueness of story, innovative plot lines and compelling characters. In professional and nonfiction work, we value specific expertise, a distinct point of view, and concise, compelling writing.
