However, artists must write something about their work: Tell us what themes you love, how you started in that medium, how you make a living from your art, your first disastrous show... something. Let us know you a bit as an artist, don't just throw your work at us and run off. It doesn't have to be a long piece (in fact, keep it under 1,500 words) but make it interesting. We want a full spotlight on our blog, not just a flashlight.
General:
- Artists can submit up to five minutes of audio/video or up to six images.
- All media must have captions, descriptions, or transcripts included. All. We will not be providing them. We will not accept submissions without them.
- We will not open any odd links. Please send us YouTube links (or other recognized, legitimate links to your work). Same thing goes with files: Nothing we're scared to open.
- Subject line in your email must be "AAS Submission [Your Name]" and all submissions must be sent to handyuncappedpen[at]gmail[dot]com.
- The text of your submission (not necessarily including descriptions/transcripts) must be in the body of the email with double-spacing between paragraphs.
- Swearing permitted.
- We expect any appropriate trigger warnings.
- A third-person biography and contact information must be included. Your biography can have links to your store.
- Inquire about collaboration projects first.
What we won't consider:
- Excessive gore
- Pornography
- Coloring book pages (unless they're truly unique)
- Culinary arts without an interesting focus or more "decorative slant"
- Submissions of just poetry or short fiction. Slam poets are different.
Payment:
We pay $3 via Paypal only. We won't send paper checks, sorry.
Rights:
We take one-time rights and request archival rights since posts stay on the blog.
We do not take rights not absolutely required to do what we do. Your copyright stays yours.
