Formatting Guidelines for Fiction, and other TEXT submissions
Guidelines
Be sure to read the Global Information and Content Guidelines before deciding to submit.
We are generally looking for stories, articles, reviews, etc. of obvious and strong interest to teens.
Payment
We cannot currently offer payment for any works submitted. Published works will be credited with a byline. Our future plans are to secure funding to compensate authors for their contributions, but at this time TeenAge is a FTLOI (For the love of it) market.
Reprints
As stated, we prefer original works, but exceptional reprints will be considered. The author must be sure they have the right to sell reprints.
Format
Submission of these types of works are done completely through the web tool. You will not attach any files, as the submission will be entirely sent through the form.
The instructions are detailed. You will be asked to classify your submission (Fiction, Review, Essay, etc.; Romance, Fantasy, Science Fiction, etc.), then provide title and other information. We ask that you provide a present tense blurb that will appear in the contents to entice website visitors to read your work. Next, you will be asked to enter your submission in full into the next box (some formatting instructions are given). Lastly, you can enter your "cover letter" before saving and previewing.
When you save/preview, your submission will be presented for your inspection and in the middle of the page you will find a button that says "Approve Submission and Notify Editors." You may click that button to finalize your submission or scroll further down to make additional changes and repeat the save/preview process.
Once you approve your submission, the editorial team is notified that a new submission has been received. Your submission will then appear in a list in your Author-Artist Tools.
