The fine print

All submissions are subject to the terms and conditions of this Web site outlined below. Essentially YWP retains the copyright but you (the artist) retain the commercial rights -- you are free to do or to sell or to publish your material as you see fit in perpetuity. Please read before submitting. By submitting this work you are agreeing to those terms and conditions.

This copyright arrangement is a requirement of Young Writers Project Inc. in order to be able to publish your work in other publications and that, after all, is the principal aim of this project.

To affirm that you retain all commercial rights -- permission to use or publish your work in any fashion and in any publication or medium in perpetuity -- simply write or email Geoffrey Gevalt, Editor, Young Writers Project Inc., 20 Winooski Falls Way, Suite #4, Winooski, VT, 05404.

We feel that this copyright arrangement will work for everyone: We'll be able to freely publish student work and students will be able to do anything they want with their work.
