Hi! What a great theme for a zine!
I have a question about the writer applications. Is there any leeway in the 4000-5000 word limit for the complete story to be included in the application? Especially considering that you mention it might be possible to go over that length in the zine itself?

Hello! Thanks for getting in touch, we're glad to know the concept has got you excited!

We're happy to accept samples up to around 5,500 words as counting towards the sample between 4k and 5k words, but we'd rather not get samples much over 5,500 words so we can judge applicants' ability to tell a well-paced story with a good, cohesive structure within this word count.

Thank you for your interest, we're looking forward to reading your application! :)
