Submission Guidelines

Submit no more than 5 pieces at a time. Additionally, we can only accept five submissions from any one student per issue. Therefore, if a piece of yours is accepted, you can only re-submit a maximum of 4 submissions, and so on. You may re-submit new pieces until we accept up to five pieces.

• Submit any kind of art to the Art Director at inklingsart@miamioh.edu.

• Submit any kind of writing to the Writing Director at inklingswriting@miamioh.edu. 

• In the subject line of your email, write something like "Inklings Writing/Art" or "Submission" so that we know your email isn't spam. In the body of the email, please include:

  • Your name

  • Your Miami email address

  • The title(s) of your piece(s)

  • The genre or medium of each piece

• Attach your pieces as individual word documents, google documents, .jpeg files, or .png files. We review submissions anonymously, so remove your name and signature from each piece.

• If submitting multiple art pieces, please indicate if they are part of a series or if they are to be evaluated individually.

• When submitting 2D art, send us a high quality scan (free at our libraries), not a photograph.

• We must accept pieces as-is, so make sure you are showing us your work at its best.

We'll get back to you in around 1-2 weeks. If we haven't gotten back to you by then, something might have gone wrong! Please send us an email so we can fix the problem.

DISCLAIMER: If your piece is accepted in the magazine, you are giving us permission to use it in promotional materials for Inklings. If this poses as a concern for you, please reach out the Inklings Art Director via inklingsart@miamioh.edu.
