Submissions

The IWHS Online Literary Magazine is now accepting submissions of any original artworks (such as photography, paintings, sketches, textile art, collages, etc.) as well as any original poetry, short stories, lyrics, animations, dances, or other creative works. We take submissions in English as well as other languages.

We will accept either a copy of the original work or a video of the artist performing their work.

Please email submissions to: iwlitmagazine@gmail.com.

Submissions to the online Zine will remain open throughout the year, as we publish multiple issues. At the end of the year, our club staff will review all works published in the Zine throughout the year and curate a physical collection, which will be printed and distributed by club members throughout the school.

If you are photographing a piece of art to submit, please refer to the following tips:

• If you are photographing your work indoors, do so in a room with plenty of windows and natural light.

• If you are photographing outside, try to do so when it is cloudy or overcast, as indirect sunlight provides the best lighting.

• Adjust your angles so that the artwork is directly centered. All of the corners should appear as right angles.

• Try laying your artwork on the floor and standing over it to take the photograph (but watch out for your shadow!).

• If you have an iPhone, then you can set your camera’s settings to the Grid function and use this to align your artwork to the camera.
