4. Bios: At the end of your full submission, include a little information about yourself, your work, whatever is on your mind (5-6 sentences max). If you wish, you may also send us a photograph – of yourself, of something you enjoy, of your heart’s desire…
5. Genre: Any.
6. You may submit as many pieces as you’d like.
7. We will only accept submissions from current members of the MFA community (for now, anyway).
