Bree and I put together put together an FAQ list recently for The Archivist submission guidelines. Rather than simply pasting them into the submissions page as text, we wanted to have a little fun with it.
Check out our FAQs in the gallery below!
We’re excited to see your journal submissions for The Archivist: An Anthology for Creative Journal Artists! If you’re feeling unsure about what kind of photos you should submit, please use these examples below for inspiration!
Flat lay photography is what you’ll see most when scrolling through journaling accounts on social media. Surround your journal with home décor, fabrics, and stationery supplies!
Pro-tip—surround your journal with objects and materials that match the colors in your journal page.
A simple flat lay—close up shots of your favorite part of the page are welcomed!
On the go journal artists may want to take a picture of their journals away from the craft desk. Hold your journal up and snap a picture or nestle it next to your latte and breakfast muffin.
Hold your journal up and snap a picture!
Sometimes, nature provides the best backgrounds.
Let your journal stand out on a plain background. Less is more.
Struggling to get a good shot without your journal closing on you? Use clips to keep your journal open!
Angled & simple!
Find our submission guidelines for details on how and where to submit!
We’re happy to have already begun receiving submissions for our new anthology, The Archivist! I think that making this book is going to be a fun journey. However, I embarrassingly forgot to include an important detail in the submission guidelines.
The original guidelines failed to note that the authors/artists who have their work selected for publication, will receive an author copy of the book.
The submission guidelines have been updated. Check out the guidelines HERE. If your work is selected for publication, you will receive one author copy of The Archivist upon publication.
In the meantime, check out the video below for some creative journalling inspiration!
