Rights and Rules for Contributors

​
 

The editors and publishing team have the right to refuse any expression of interest or contribution without judgement. We will attempt to work with you to resolve any issues around this.

Any medium accepted, including but not limited to:

• painting

• sketching

• illustration

• mixed media

• collage art

• 3d art/assemblage (through photography)

• photography

• digital art

• costume art

• jewellery

• comic art

• Any writing style including but not limited to:

• short story

• prose excerpt

• book preview

• poetry

• blackout poetry

• word art

• Original art only. Pop culture inspiration is fine, just not a  'copy/paste' artwork.

• NSFW overt gore, body horror, and sexual content must be censored. A blurred effect is fine. If you’re unsure, you may leave it up to the editors who will be in touch to work with you on this issue.

NOT ALLOWED NO EXCEPTIONS

• No Exploitation of women, minorities, children, animals, marginalised groups

•  

• No hate speech, transphobic, homophobic, political agenda, racist, or misogynistic speech

•  

• NO AI ART. No exceptions. If publishers are unsure, we will ask for you processes

•  

• Fan-fic is not allowed. We will only accept original work. If it has appeared elsewhere online in your blogs or zines, that is okay. An excerpt from a book or story you have written is also acceptable.

YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONTRIBUTOR

​

You will receive 2 physical and 1 digital copy of the zine for your own library/use, or to promote sales of the zine to raise money for the charities listed.

There is no payment for contributions to this zine, as all profits go to 2 charities.

You have the right to take the work you made for this zine and republish your work only in any other form you like.

Any publicity tokens (such as stickers, badges, bookmarks, posters) may be offered to you with no expectation of you to advertise the zine. These can be used for advertising, or your own private use.

You have the right to remain anonymous, or have your details posted in the zine for people to follow you on social media.

All personal information gathered in the EOI and Contributor Form will NOT be sold to 3rd parties, and, upon your request, be destroyed upon finalisation of this project.

You have up until the 26th July to make any changes to titles, names, social media, etc that will enter the zine. After this date, we will not be able to make any changes.

There will be a question in the EOI form where you can opt in to create merch for this zine (badges, stickers, postcards, bookmarks).  This is unpaid, but all profits raised from the extra sale of these items will also go to charity. If you wish to opt in/out after EOI closes, please discuss with the team.

Any merch that is offered as part of the Kickstarter can be purchased by yourselves, with all profits going to charity.
