since we are a baby mag, we were indecisive with how to organize our guidlines but we just researched other magazines and kind of picked and choose what we liked. We were also debating on whether or not to do a theme for our first issue rn so we created a compromise. Fiction, Poetry, and Art submissions would have a theme and a deadline of July 31st, 2023 11:59 PM PT. Then for our Non-Fiction/Online features, which is just book and film reviews, film theory, etc. we would take in ongoing submissions year round as long as the submissions had to do with film and literature. Here is our submission guidelines: https://beneaththegardenmag.squarespace.com/submission
