The Echo Journal
Introduction
The Echo Journal
welcomes all forms and styles of poetry, fiction, art, music
and film that are consistent with these guidelines. We are
particularly interested in receiving submissions of on-line
art for display throughout our pages.
In general, the
presentations will be thoughtful. The collections when taken
together represent a broad and high-quality range of
concerns.
Special
Note: avoid hate-based speech, personal attacks and
gratuitous rants. These are not welcome at the Echo
Journal.
The Echo Journal
embodies a large number of poets, artists, musicians and
filmmakers with diverse styles of expression. We are
selective, but not discriminating. Not everyone is accepted
for publication, but do not be disheartened if your work is
declined. It is not personal or a reflection on the quality
of your work. Sometimes the editor revives the submissions
that once were declined for previous publication.
We happily welcome
unpublished work at the Echo Journal, as it is one of
our goals to get your unseen work out in the open so others
can offer you constructive criticism. Don't be deterred if
you see comments from the editor every now and then.
The
Audience
The Echo Journal
continuously queries our audience for their views. Visitors
come from all continents and over 58 countries.
We strive for the
presentation of quality work in a professional manner. It
means we write for an audience hopefully delivering work of
integrity that they genuinely expect.
Confirmation
Following online
submission, you will receive an online confirmation, then
another via e-mail (but only to a valid e-mail address).
Users at AOL and the so-called free mail services should be
especially alert to mail problems. If after repeated
attempts, your e-mail fails to get through, your submission
may be automatically declined.
We acknowledge the receipt
of all submissions, and we make every attempt to let you
know whether your work has been accepted or declined. If
accepted, the confirmation will include additional
information aimed at ensuring a quality presentation for our
audience. The editor has to maintain a balancing act between
the activities of daily life demands, however a comment on
the submitted work will try to be returned if time permits.
If you submit from a valid e-mail address, you should hear
from us one way or another. If you do not receive word
within 30 days, please feel free to contact the editor.
We ask that all authors
keep their e-mail address and other data current.
Photos
The Echo Journal
strongly encourages every poet and artist published here to
have a picture and/or a biography. It brings attention to
you and your work. Just send your photo (JPG,
preferred, or GIF), we will do what we can. All
submissions are subject to the editor's approval and/or
modifications.
Publicity
We suggest that each
author maintain a private e-mail list of personal contacts
who have an interest in your work. You then can forward
information about changes or new publication to increase
your exposure and acceptance. However, please avoid sending
unsolicited e-mail to anyone (spam).
Copyrights
By submitting, you certify
that the work is yours, and not subject to any copyright
restrictions. Submitters retain all rights to their work, of
course, but grant unlimited use to the Echo Journal,
for any current or future online publications. Use of such
works in any future publication for sale and/or profit,
whether online or in print, is negotiable.
Previously published work

reference should be made to the appropriate issue.
