Please polish your manuscripts to the best of your ability and, of course, have someone else edit your work before sending to Path to Publication. Do not format your work: no page numbers, no headers or footers, no paragraph indentations (skip a line for paragraph spacing). Manuscripts must be submitted in Microsoft Word or RTF form. Font: Times New Roman - size 12. All submissions must be submitted electronically, as e-mail attachments, to: mjnickum@cox.net .
1) Deadline for Issue #2 is October 30, 2011. Submit manuscripts to: mjnickum@cox.net
2) All rights are retained by the author, and there will be no compensation for accepted work at this time*.
*Because we are staffed by volunteers, we can only compensate our writers in exposure to our audience. Our columnists enjoy great publicity for their own blogs, books, websites, and projects. Many find great reward in doing something good for the world of literature and literacy.
You may also purchase add space to further promote your work.
