We all remember what Mrs. Tate taught us about sentences in elementary school. DO NOT FREAKING DISAPPOINT MRS. TATE!<\/li>\n<li>Start with an uppercase letter, as sentences do. (Also, as your doctors, the editors suggest you start every day with an uppercase letter. It will get you started with a positive attitude!)<\/li>\n<li>End with a terminal punctuation mark. But don&#8217;t die.<\/li>\n<li>Semicolons are discouraged, especially when used to merge what should be multiple sentences into one long sentence. Also, it&#8217;s a really ugly punctuation mark.<\/li>\n<li>Format: <strong>There must be at least one line break<em>. <\/em><\/strong>So, give us a break. (Sorry.)<\/li>\n<li>We prefer left-justified. Weird layouts give us migraines.<\/li>\n<li>Please submit a third person bio. <strong>Your bio, in keeping with the spirit of the journal, should consist of a single, relatively short sentence.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Submit no more than 4 poems at a time.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We use the Submittable account associated with our sister site (mother site?) <em><a title=\"Right Hand Pointing\" href=\"http:\/\/www.righthandpointing.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Right Hand Pointing<\/a><\/em>.
