We should advise you that - inevitably - there will be some house rules you will be asked to observe. Freedom of thought and expression are key values for us. Accordingly, we’ve kept our strictures to the irreducible minimum necesssary to maintain good order. These are as follows:
By signing up at After Literature, you certify that you are 18 years of age or older, and that all material submitted by you is original to you and does not breach any existing copyright. There is no bar against submitting material published elsewhere, as long as you have retained the copyright to your material.
By posting to your Portfolio, you give After Literature permission to publish your work on the Home Page and/or in our print publications. You will however retain the copyright to your work in all cases.
We ask you to please limit postings of original material for Critique to two pieces per calendar week, and not to make postings into another author's Portfolio without their consent. You may post as much as you like to your own Portfolio and/or Blog.
While vigorous exchange of views is encouraged, you will not engage in mere personal abuse or post any material which is illegal in any European Union Member State, Japan, Canada or the USA.
