FOR ALL WORKS: Birmingham Arts Journal has readers young and old, from all walks of life. For this reason, works containing strong profanity, explicit sex, gratuitous violence, and overtly religious or political material will not be accepted. Simultaneous submissions accepted, but please let us know if a piece has been placed elsewhere. Due to the high volume of submissions that we receive, we will only respond to those that are of interest for possible publication. If you have not heard from us within three months of submitting your work, you can assume that it is not right for Birmingham Arts Journal.
