Submissions
Submission Requirements
- Okay, the fun part. At Unorthodox, we neither bother with nor deal with legal feces. Therefore:
- Any stories submitted to us remain the literary property of the writers. We do not want to keep your stories--none of us, including the editors, believe anyone at the school is good enough to plagiarize off of, see comment below.
- All submissions should be in Microsoft Word format. The destination should be
- Note: We will not accept hard-copies unless the submitting writer has absolutely no other way of getting his story to us. A hard copy means that we must physically type the actual story into a computer.
- PLEASE spell-check all stories with some sort of grammar correction before submitting. Though we are editors, it is hoped that you care enough for you work to make it accurate.
- Absolutely NO profanity will be allowed in this issue. If your story contains such profanity, we will edit it out. If you insist that the story needs those words, we will send it back to you and you can change them how you will. This is not because the editors bellieve such words should exist in a story, but that the location where this will be printed will literally ban this issue if such words were in it. If you don't know what profanity is, drop us a line and ask--but we hope you do.

- Submission format should be in size 12 font, Times New Roman, single-spaced. Please do not double-space. The paper will be single-spaced to save space.
- It is not necessary to supply us with your real name or even to publish under your real name, but do not expect us to accept your submission if you do not include your real name. If you wish to publish under a pseudonym, please inform us.
- Lastly, absolutely NO pornography will be accepted. This should be obvious. If you don't know this already, you're an idiot.
Comment Below: This was not intended to destroy future writers. It's just that we don't want you to get too big-headed. It weighs you down.
