SUBMISSION GUIDELINES


WARRANTY & AGREEMENT 

By submitting to PP, the submitter warrants that 
s/he alone has created the work s/he is submitting and that 
s/he owns all rights to it. The submitter will indemnify and 
hold PP and its staff harmless from and against any and all loss,
 damage, costs and other expenses arising out of claims, 
whatever their nature, resulting directly or indirectly 
from breach of this warranty. At the same time, 
the submitter/contributor agrees that PP can use 
part or all of his/her accepted material, including responses 
to PP's interview questions, on its Facebook and/or 
other similar social networking vehicles for promotional purposes.

* All poetic and photographic works are carefully read/viewed 
year round on a rolling basis for PP's spring, summer, autumn or winter issue, 
to be released respectively on 5 May, August, November and February;

* No author information in your submission please, except your name, 
and email address (which we will include in your bionote 
upon acceptance/posting unless you tell us not to do so)  
- we follow a blind submission policy, 
and will ask you for a brief 3rd-person bionote upon acceptance;

* Multiple and simultaneous submissions, as well as previously published work, 
are all equally welcome insofar as you still hold the copy/publishing rights;

* Although we wish to pay our poets and buy certain rights from them,
 there is no money exchange involved, at least not for now, 
except a genuine shared love for art and wisdom;

* Please send up to 5 of your best shorter poems each time 
by pasting them all within the body of your email,
to editors.pp@gmail.com, 
or visual artworks as individually separate attachments. 
Before acceptence, we will NOT open any attachments/files
 for virus/spam-related concerns, but we may ask you 
to send the accepted work as an attachment;

*  Please feel welcome to send us a query if, for instance, 
your accepted work does not appear as scheduled;

* All submitted poems or responses to interviews may be posted on our facebook 
or other networking vehicles for promotional purposes;

* Our response-time is 6-8 weeks at latest, usually shorter than 3 weeks: 
since we never give anyone any 'rejection notice,' please feel free 
to do whatever you want to with your submission
 if you do not get any response/acceptance from PP within 60 days
 after you send it over to us. In other words: 
only those accepted will get a reply. 
- Many thanks for your kind support of PP & Gooooodluuuuck!
