    (e.g. I Heard it on the Grapevine, by Marvin Gaye. This will be copied and pasted directly to the top of your story.) 

    Total number of words in your submission, NOT including the title. Our preferred maximum is 100 but we'll consider up to 500. We currently do NOT accept stories of 101-150 words.
    ​Must not exceed 160 words in length.
    Must not be longer than 16 lines.
    ​Please make sure your count is accurate.
    Please insert your story into the "SHORT POEM" box below.
    Write story text in here – or copy and paste from your favourite word processor. However please be aware that we can't accept poorly formatted work or work written in poor English, or stories in bad taste. We notify all new stories on Twitter.
    (If you have any special instructions, such as italics, etc, please just add them at the end of the poem. We'll try to accommodate if we can.)

    This is to assert your copyright, and also to allow us to comply with GDPR regulations, etc..
    For more details, see our page under "GDPR Compliance". There's nothing sinister here, we're just ticking a box, too.
