Submissions Policy

The Bygone Bureau accepts unsolicited article submissions emailed to submissions@bygonebureau.com, as long as the author agrees to the following terms:

• Anyone may submit an article, although The Bygone Bureau reserves the right to not accept any work. We will review all submissions and give you a response within a week.
• If a submission is accepted, The Bygone Bureau maintains the right to publish any version of your article while you maintain rights to the work. The editorial staff may make changes to your article and publish it at any time.
• All submissions must be attached in Word or Pages document format.
• All submissions must be accompanied by a brief abstract of the article and a short biography of the author.
• We do not accept works of fiction, such as short stories and poetry.
• We accept submissions only by email.
• If submitting more than one article, the author must send a separate email for each.
• There is no monetary compensation for your submission. (I mean, c’mon, do we look like we’re made of money?)

Tips

• It’s a good initiative to email the editors (kevin@bygonebureau.com and nick@bygonebureau.com) beforehand with a rough idea of what you want to write about. They will be able to help develop and confirm your topic.
• Focused, specific writing is often the most engaging to read.
• Accompanying pictures are encouraged, as long as the author has full permission to use the image.
• Please spell and grammar check your work before submission. Otherwise, it reflects poorly on you as a person.
• Remember, there are no restrictions on format or structure. Creativity counts.
• Be quick on email. Punctuality also counts.
• Check out past submissions.
