Submission Rules

Any student, faculty, or staff member of Blue Ridge Community College during the current academic year is eligible to submit work.

We accept poetry, fiction, essays, and other creative written works less than 2,000 words. We accept high resolution images of photographs, paintings, sculpture, etc. All submissions must be original works to which you own the copyright. By submitting, you grant 540 permission to publish the work electronically and/or in print.

The deadline for submissions is midnight on March 13, 2011. Notifications of receipt and acceptance will be sent via email.

Email your submission or inquiry to 540mag@gmail.com. It is helpful to attach your written work, rather than pasting it into the body of the message.
