Tips

“Between Kisses loves to publishg beginning writers, as well as seasoned veterans. Be sure to read and follow the guidelines before submitting your work. The best advice for new writers is to send your best effort, not your first draft. Because Between Kisses is published in newsletter format, the shorter short stories are an easier sell with us. It is better to have submitted and been rejected than never to have submitted at all.”
