When submitting articles, fiction, art, or photography to The Concordium, make sure you've contacted us in advance to make sure we have room for your submission and to verify that we don't already have something similar in the works.
All submissions are considered "gratis" or "pro bono" (i.e. not paid) unless other arrangements have been made with the publisher. We would especially like to give those fledgling artists and writers a chance to see their work in print. It's a wonderful first step to becoming a paid professional.
This is not saying, however, that qualified, professional, and experienced artists and writers will not get a stipend for their work. Each item is on a case-by-case basis and paid at the discretion of the publisher.

In the case of paid work, The Concordium pays for articles & fiction at the rate of .05 per printed word (not per submitted word). Photographs and art are paid at the rate of $25 per piece maximum but can range as low as $5 per piece, depending on size.
Written articles and fiction should be have a word count not exceeding 2,000 and delivered digitally as straight .txt (no word or other document forms). Photographs should be at a resolution of 300dpi and large enough to fit an 8.5 x 11 page. Photographs and artwork should be delivered digitally in a .jpg format. Line art should be supplied as 600dpi grayscale Tiff images and uncompressed.

Rights to the material, whether art, photograph, or written, remain with the author/artist. By submitting the pieces, you agree to allow The Concordium to print said pieces in perpetuity (as many issues will be reprinted in the future). We hold the rights only to print said pieces but they are rights of exclusivity, meaning you cannot submit these works to other media outlets whether print, video, or digital.
