Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I know if my work has been submitted?

A: Once you submit the form, we will receive your submission. You can send us an email at scriberelit@gmail.com to confirm your submission. 

Q: When will I find out if my work has been rejected or accepted?

A: In both cases, you will hear from us via email about the outcome of your submission within a month after the submission window has closed. If it is not accepted, we will invite you to revise and resubmit.

Q: Why should I submit to Scribere?

A: Scribere was created because of the founding editor’s frustration with the non-transparency of publications for youth. Scribere is different: we have a transparent publishing process, which means that authors will be kept informed about the status of their submissions and the behind-the-scenes of selecting pieces (which can be found on our Selection Process page).

In addition, Scribere is completely free for readers and authors who have access to the internet. We do not charge any fees for submissions or publications, and there is no subscription. You can read your amazing work right off of our website!

Q: What rights am I giving to Scribere when my work is published?

A: You are giving Scribere first publishing rights, or the right publish your work in full.
