Submission Guidelines

• 1. This Mutant Life publishes work which has some link to the world of superheroes, whether they be torn from the pages of classic four-colour comics, or the result of more introspective or unconventional approaches.  Stories which deal with the everyday lives of people with unusual abilities or physical characteristics are ideal, and there will be a definite preference given to stories which present interesting and well defined characters and situations. 

• 2. Work can be submitted via email to editor@thismutantlife.com in any format, although *.doc, *.rtf or *.txt is preferred.

• 3. Make sure you have proof read your work before you send it in.

• 4. The work must be your own.

• 5. Each issue is generally restricted to ten stories so please don't take a rejection personally.  It may just require a bit of tweaking, and the editor will make every effort to assist writers in producing a publishable piece of writing if time permits.  Editorial decisions are final, however, and based on the need to publish the magazine on time with as little stress as possible.

Please make sure you read and agree to the terms set out in the publishing contract.

The editor will be in contact with you within 30 days of your submission.

If you have not heard back from us by the end of those 30 days, please send a reminder email.

Good luck, and we look forward to receiving your submissions!
