1.Please submit unpublished drafts. When you are finished with your piece, select Writing Together as its publication. For instructions on how to do this, go here:
2.After submitting your draft to the publication, make sure to check back after a few days to check for any private notes. Sometimes, it may be that Medium does not notify you of responses to these notes. Your best bet would be to open the article, and scan the right margin for asterisks (*) showing private notes. The editor will send private notes letting you know if revisions have been made, and if any clarification or requests are needed. If you do not receive feedback or your story is not published, it may not have been selected for the publication.
Important Note:
The editor of STAINED may make changes to your draft. We want all our published stories to look cohesive and have a sense of visual unity. We also want your writing to look polished and attractive to our target audience!
If you haven’t received any communication within a couple of days, your story may not have been approved to be published. That said, we will always try our utmost to reach out with feedback. Please do not let this discourage you from submitting new stories in the future or writing in general!
Get writing and submitting to STAINED!
