Hey there and thanks for checking out this form. The Poe-tato Writing Collective is a blog dedicated and committed to showcasing the work of other writers in our community. And of course, ours is focused towards the themes Edgar Allan Poe-tato would often write about, such as: death, loss, paranoia, the human condition, and of course, potatoes.
You might think we're joking on that last part. But no, we do want to see pieces about potatoes. We would also love to see pieces about potatoes going through loss and paranoia. But, please don't feel obligated to submit such potato-ey pieces. Any of the themes we mentioned will do just fine.
5) In order to get your submission approved, we ask you like and restack two poems or short stories from the Collective. Doing this does not guarantee your post will be approved if your work doesn't fit our guidelines.
This will be used to invite you as a collaborator on your submission's post.
While we need your email for the reason mentioned in the above question, we recognize many of you are submitting posts from SubStack. We can absolutely reach out to you there instead about your submission, if preferred.
We have a no tolerance policy towards AI, so if your submission contains any use of it in your text or pictures, we cannot move forward. If you say no to this question, and we find AI in your submission, we will not move forward.
These must be posts from the Collective which feature another person's
work. This is simply to help boost visibility and engagement. So, we
can't move forward with your submission unless you do this.
