Guidelines for submissions are as follows:

- Submit only unpublished works.
- Fiction/creative non-fiction has no limit in length because we are an online magazine.
- Please inform us if this is a simultaneous submission, i.e. you are submitting a piece to Mortar as well as another Lit Mag.
- Please submit a two-three line bio with your work.
- Please submit poetry, fiction and other writing in a .doc format in standard point-12 font.
