Being Published

While perusing the magazine aisle of Barnes and Nobles, two very fugly stuffed bunnies were on the cover of Stuffed, a magazine about handmade stuffed creatures.

NO FRIGGIN WAY, JACOB.

Skimming through the magazine, I was thrilled to find a publication that suited my Phuglies so flippin well. It was as if Stampington & Co. made a magazine just for my Phuglies.

I'm submitting. I'm a cutting it super close so I have to have it mailed out Priority on Wednesday to have it in by August 15.

GENERAL ARTWORK SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All artwork must arrive at our offices on or before the published deadlines. We prefer submissions of original art. If original art is not available, our next preference is hi-res digital images (300 dpi at 8½" x 10"). If hi-res digital images are not available, we will very rarely consider professional-quality transparencies or color slides. Color-copy submissions are not accepted. All artwork must be identified with the artist’s name, address, e-mail and phone number clearly printed on a label attached to each sample. As artwork often gets separated from instructions during our selection process, we ask that you also inscribe your name and address somewhere on each piece of art. If you desire acknowledgment of artwork receipt, please include a self-addressed stamped postcard. If the artwork is three-dimensional, please attach your identification with a removable string, or pack the sample in a plastic bag with your identification. Artwork without proper identification will not be considered for publication. Depending on the publication, concise yet thorough instructions must accompany each art sample. Attach individual sample instructions to each piece of artwork and include credits for art stamp images used, as well as any other products of note. If you are able, please keep an electronic version of your instructions, as you may be requested to send those in if your work is selected for publication. Please send submissions to: (Name of Magazine Title) 22992 Mill Creek, Suite B Laguna Hills, CA 92653 ARTWORK MANAGEMENT POLICY Due to the large volume of artwork we receive, Somerset Studio will return only those submissions accompanied by sufficient postage in the form of cash, check or money order made out to Stampington & Company. We can not offer delivery confirmation; however, we are happy to put insurance on the submission. If you wish to have your artwork insured for the return journey, please include sufficient funds and indicate your preference in a postcard or letter enclosed with your submission.
