The New Guard 2012 contest readers are looking forward to reading your
work! You can submit online via our submissions manager or by postal mail
with a check for the entry fee. Contest winners and all finalists get two
free copies of TNG, and each submission will be carefully considered for
publication. Final judging is done blind. We accept .doc or similar
files–no PDFs, please. We do pay strict attention to word and line count.
We are not presently accepting submissions aside from our contests. TNG
accepts previously unpublished work only.
