Submission Details

I’m looking for all sorts of material including: articles, reviews, opinion pieces, interviews, analysis, artwork, fiction, columns, a comic - the typical staples of a well produced fanzine.  Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated and getting the word out about the zine to other Blake’s 7 fans would be appreciated too.
 
Here are a few basic details if you’re interested in contributing…

In terms of artwork or graphics:

  1. All work should be in either jpg or gif format
  2. Color or black & white
  3. 300 dpi resolution
  4. Standard page size is 8.5 x 11 inches, but I will accept artwork/graphics in any size providing it doesn’t exceed the standard page size.

Written work:

  1. I’m looking for anything on Blake’s 7.  It can be on the original series, the novels, or the current audios.  I’ll just about accept anything as long as it’s well written and tells the reader something interesting.  I’m also open to in-depth episode overviews, and multiple-part articles.
  2. Material can be anything from articles, reviews, opinion pieces, interviews, etc. 
  3. Written works should be submitted in MS Word 2003 (.doc) format.  (I can also accept material in rich text or Word 2007 formats.)
  4. Word count is not a problem but to give you some sort of guideline, I’ll likely be publishing in 8.5 x 11 inch size and each page is roughly 800-1000 words.  So if you’ve submitted something that’s 3000 words, that’s likely around 2.5-3 pages in length.
  5. All written material submitted will be edited for spelling, grammar, punctuation and coherense.  Material will be returned to the author for corrections if required. 
  6. If you’re not sure if I’ll publish your material, or if its suitable for publication, please feel free to contact me.

Additional Information:

  1. I’m keen to feature an original comic so if someone is interested in writing one and illustrating it, I’d love to hear from you.
  2. I’m also interested in featuring fiction providing it is well written.  I’m open to short pieces right up to full multiple part stories.
