Submission Requirements

Written Submissions

Written work may include scholastic articles, personal essays, meditations, workings, rituals, recipes, poetry, chants, or songs that directly connect to any of the suggested topics as related to the current Call for Submissions.

We prefer submissions that are original content and not already published elsewhere. If you are submitting a piece that has already been published, please be sure the copyright requirements of that publication allow you to submit it to us for subsequent republication and include that information with your submission.

All written work should be in Arial 12-point font, saved as a Word document (.doc, .docx), and include a brief (100 words or less) author bio.

Minimum length- 300 words (except poetry, chants, or songs)

Maximum length- 5,000 words (except poetry)

Chants and songs do not have to be scored. Ninth Wave Press staff are available to help score musical submissions as long as a simple but good quality .mp3/.mp4 recording of the piece is also submitted.
