The submission to the journal has been fantastic!  However, I read some excellent poems that could have been added to the journal for publishing.  One of the problems I had is TIME.  How does time affect that? 
 
Here are a few tips that may be useful, especially to new submitters. 

From my own experience, these are some of the situations that I have been running into
and unfortunately, I do not have the time to e-mail and ask for corrections, nor email requesting your email and snail mail address as required for each submissions. 

This also includes if you have previously submitted, we still need all info required as it saves us time and make the difference if we publish your poem or not.

There is a submission guideline on the website to help you get your poetry accepted and
published.  Below are a few more TIPS:

A) Was the poem written in ALL CAPITALS?  That’s a ‘no-no’. 
  Check the guidelines.

B )    Proof your work thoroughly for typographical and grammatical errors. Work that is
         badly miss-spelt or in need of severe grammatical or punctual corrections, basically
         will end up in “Unacceptable” file. 

C )   Do NOT cut-and-paste from your word processing program into your e-mail
         message. Doing so can garble your work and often produces strange symbols that
         detract from the editors' impressions of your work.

D )   Does the poem have a title and is it appropriate?  If it's worthy of being  considered,
         it’s worthy of a title.

E)    Sending your work with NO ADDRESS.  Where do we mail your published work?

NOTE:  Bear in mind, if your poetry is not in this issue, we do keep your poetry over to be
              considered for the next issue.  That’s also in the guideline page.

                                             Have a great and safe fall!
