Guidelines

Ideally, we'd like to see well-written short stories ranging from 1,000-3,500 words, and poetry not exceeding twenty stanzas.
We will definitely consider longer works but know that it better keep us interested, lest we drop it "as if it had exceeded comfortable temperature."
We will accept unpublished stories, stories published on your own personal blog, and stories that were previously given the boot, as long as it's all your original work.

We will not, ever, ever, ever, ever, accept reprints, they are beside the point of our entire operation here. 
Sex, gore, depravity, and lechery are all fine, but if they don't add to the story we probably won't be interested.

Pictures and artwork of all types are definitely things we'd also like to have submitted to us. We'll take anything, published, unpublished, so long as it's your original work.  Pictures will be posted on our site and perhaps used as future headers or volume covers, should we ever manage to evolve that far.


Don't send us blatantly pornographic images. We aren't going to use them. Violent images are fine, so long as they're simply art. We don't want you to actually photograph yourself flaying the neighbor's dog, your crazy uncle's twelve gauge suicide, or your appendectomy. 

All submissions should be sent to codsubmissions@yahoo.com with the headline of SUBMISSION: (STORY NAME)
 If it's a picture it should be: SUBMISSION: Artwork


PLEASE SPECIFY WHETHER OR NOT YOU GIVE US PERMISSION TO PRINT YOUR WORK IN FUTURE ANTHOLOGIES, SHOULD THERE BE A MONETARY ASPECT TO THIS, YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED.

We want all written manuscripts to be double spaced, twelve point font, the whole shebang. You can attach it to a .doc, .docx, or .rtf file within the email. The email should also contain a cover letter within the body of the email with the following information:

Name.
Age.
Mailing Address.
Email Address.
Title of the Story.
Word Count.
Your best two paragraph bio.

Postal submissions will be coming soon.

All of the same rules apply. I want your information, and a nice double spaced twelve point font paper.

For Artwork you can send us .gif, .jpeg, or .img files. They can be any size, granted, that it isn't above 1500x1500x. Attach it to the email.

In the body of the email be sure to include the following information:


Name.
Age.
Mailing Address.
Email Address.
Medium used: (Camera type and editing program if you want.)
Title of the Artwork.
Your best two paragraph bio.

You can expect a response within the week. Your work will have been personally reviewed by either myself, (Heinrich Willhelm von Metzgermeister) or our very own Erik Eier.

Viel Gluck, und Vielen Dank.
(Much luck, and many thanks.)
