compilations or websites of their own material. Any further use must be

Consent Form that we will email/mail to you.
- Accepted submissions become the property of Body

submission your work has been accepted.
- Thank you for your submission unfortunately the work
you submitted is not what we are presently looking for.

therefore detailed feedback or editorial advice for manuscript
submissions is not provided.

addition,

to
these
submissions
may
remain
anonymous if
they do not wish to reveal their identities. Our editor will need to
know who you are in order to get documents signed and so forth. The
information requested on our Submission Form is still required however
the contributor may remain unnamed in print if they wish. Certainly,
others may want to use their real names.
If your submission is accepted and you are under 18 years of age, you
and your Legal Guardian will need to sign a Consent Form that we will
email/mail to you.
