We will make every effort to respond to every submission, but if the
issue has been released and you have not heard from us, then we thank
you for your interest, wish you luck placing your piece elsewhere, and
encourage you to submit again.
Upon acceptance, The Quotable acquires first serial publications
rights, after which the copyright reverts to the author. All accepted
work will be archived on the site for so long as the site manager(s)
should deem appropriate.
The editors of The Quotable envision a world in which all artists are
paid handsomely for the considerable efforts they make to enrich
mankind. While we labor toward that utopia, however, the only payment
we can offer is the esteem of seeing your name in print and your work
appreciated.
