• Word counts to be included with article. Articles (stories) should be around 500 to 1,500 words. Longer stories are welcome but may be split over two or more sequential issues due to space issues. A limited number of series articles may be included in each issue (i.e. 2–3 maximum). Vales should ideally be about 300–500 words; longer vales may be separated into a shorter vale and a biographical article.
