Common Errors in Fiction Manuscripts, Part 9

Formatting the manuscript



So now you've edited and honed your
manuscript into the best possible work you can. And you're ready to submit.





Here at Five Rivers we're big on less is
more. So, pay attention to our submission requirements, which are:






email only, no hard copy submissions


DOC or RTF format


Times New Roman 12 point typeface


double-spaced


1" margins



Do not under any circumstances use any
of Word's built-in formatting for chapters, headers, etc. We will only strip it
out, and having to do so will make us cranky. It's not nice to make us cranky.





Now go forth, write a glorious work!





Comments? Questions? We'd love to hear
from you.
