Submissions for Vol. 3 are now OPEN!
The deadline to submit is June 1 2020

Submission Guidelines

Please Note: Fanfiction and full-page fan art should not have been previously published, either in print or online (such as on ao3 or tumblr). While we may print some previously published content (such as commentary, photos, shitposts, image manips, etc.), fiction and full-page art should be original to the zine. PLEASE INDICATE IN YOUR SUBMISSION EMAIL WHETHER YOUR CONTENT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED (and if so, where).

Fanfiction

• Please submit fanfiction in an editable format such as a word document (.doc, .docx) or a rich text file (.rtf) not a pdf or google doc (these are a nightmare to copy/paste/edit).
• Please format your document for print, which means no space between paragraphs (except for in section breaks) and indents at the beginning of each paragraph.
• In the document itself, be sure to include a title, the name you wish to be published under, a brief (fewer than 75 words) summary, and the following tags:
  • rating
  • identifiers (au, smut, hurt/comfort, angst, etc.)
  • timeline (pre-xf, season 6, episode names, etc.)

Art

• In the body of your email, please list the title of your piece and the name under which you wish to be published.
• Indicate your medium (digital, pen & ink, etc.)
• Please upload or attach files at a print-worthy resolution (at least 300 dpi).
• Keep in mind that the magazine will be printed in black and white, so color images will be desaturated.

Other

• We welcome: photos, screen grabs, interviews, meta commentary, personal essays, doodles, shitposts, image captions, manips, fake dialogue, and all other forms of msr nonsense. These can have been previously published, but please indicate where/when in your submission email.
• Please include in your email a description of what you're submitting
• Include the name you want it to be published under (or indicate if you wish it to be anonymous)

Submitting: Please send all submissions to spookydarlablack@gmail.com with the subject line "MSR Fanzine Submission"
