Here at Memoir (and), we do "blind reading" of submissions. This means that your name is not revealed during the selection process. Submissions are evaluated on their individual merit. Our nonprofit mission includes giving equal opportunities to all submitters. Is It Safe to Send You Work Without Your Name On It? The Submission Manager is a database, and your login information (name, address, email, etc.) is permanently linked to your submission. There is no possibility we can misplace your submission, or mistake it as the work of someone else. What Will Happen If You Upload a Submission That Has Your Name On It? If we receive a document with your name on it, the Reader Coordinator will politely return it and request that you resubmit the same piece with the name removed. If You Want to Include a Cover Letter Or Other Personal Note When you upload your work, you'll notice there is a Comments field. Type or paste your cover letter–or any comment you'd like–into that area. We look forward to reviewing your submissions! The Editors Memoir (and) Questions? Email submissions[at]memoirjournal.com |
