Zamoof! Writer Guidelines - updated March/2010

Thank you for your interest! Most of the writing for the magazine is done in-house or by our youth readers. For visiting writers, we do keep some space open for short stories, a short piece in our Parent section and the very popular PET HOROSCOPES. Please be aware of the following information below.

 

Due to high demand and limited space, we are not able to offer repeat publishing opportunities to those who have already had published work in Zamoof! under the same category (short story, horoscopes etc.)
