Heads of blog department reserve the right to make any edits to the piece as they see fit. We also reserve the right to later archive a blog post if we feel it does not resonate with the theme of our magazine on a later date. We expect blog posts to be written in a fairly formal tone. Conversationality is fine, but a complete disregard of proper spelling and grammar is not. Topics for blog posts are expected to be interesting and unusual, and entice readers. Word count for blog posts is 500-800 words. We may accept longer articles, however this is dependant on the subject of the article itself. Prose: Any forms of prose are accepted with a maximum limit of 1500 words. Format it accordingly with the required line and paragraph breaks and submit as a Word Document or a Google Docs.

For example, if you submitted to issue 8, you cannot submit to issue 9 and have to wait until issue 10 to submit to RTS again. This rule will go in place from today, i.e. if you submitted to issue 7 you can still submit to issue 8. This does not apply to features or mini issues, and you can submit to how many ever of those that you please. When we first started our magazine, we didn't have a lot of submitters so we wanted to encourage whoever wanted to to submit. However, now we believe we have a decent enough reach not to worry about reaching an adequate number of submissions, and thus we want to promote more writers instead of the same writers again. Don't get us wrong - we absolutely love recurring contributors! However, we'd like to give new people discovering us more of a chance too :) If you submit a piece that does not adhere to the submission guidelines, your piece will not be read, your submission will be automatically rejected, and you will be issued a warning. In the past we have been a bit more lenient with submissions that didn't meet the requirements, however it becomes extremely hard for our editors to keep track. Please read all the guidelines on our website thoroughly including the number of pieces you are allowed to submit and the instructions on how to title your document. Any piece that doesn't meet the guidelines will be put on a warning list, and if any single person gets three warnings they will be blacklisted from submitting to RTS. This also applies for people submitting our application form to closed positions (if a position is closed, it will be indicated on the application form itself). Note: The only exceptions to this rule we will accept are with respect to word/line counts, and that is only for marginal differences (<100 words). If your piece exceeds the maximum word count, please DM our Instagram or email to make sure it's okay. Only after receiving our confirmation that it's okay to submit can you submit this piece without receiving a warning. Anchor 1 Facts & Questions All Your Questions Answered In One Place Why should I submit? If you wrote a story that you're really proud of, or created an art piece you adore, and want more people to read and see it, we highly encourage you to submit. We understand how difficult it can be to put yourself and your work out there, but we're also young writers who started from humble beginnings, so we hope you trust us and take a chance. At RTS, we review all the pieces and provide individual feedback for all of them (only if requested for). We also take very good care of your piece (check this post for more motivation to submit!). No matter whether we decide to publish your piece or not, rest be assured that we will treat it with the respect it deserves, and make sure you're on the right track of your publishing journey <3 Who can submit? The aim of our magazine is to provide a platform for young and marginalized artists. We hope Rewrite The Stars Review serves as a platform for amateur artists where they can publish for the first time and use this magazine as a stepping stone into the formal literary world. Although we predominantly publish work by young artists in the age group 13-25, we do believe that there is no age for someone to begin writing. We will consider work from older creators, however we may prioritize publishing work by writers submitting for the first time, rather than authors with an extensive publication history. That being said, we encourage artists and writers from any part of the world to submit! What/When can I submit? We have submissions to our magazine which publishes quarterly. Check this page for more details. For our issues, we accept fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction, visual art and photography. We accept submissions to our blog year round! We are looking for articles about the reading and writing community, whether this be your hot take on a popular trope or a rant about literary magazine rejections. Check this page for more details. Apart from these, we also will occasionally be having special events and contests! More details on this are published on our socials, follow us on instagram for updates <3 Where do I submit? Check the Issues page to submit to our magazine, and the Blog page to submit to the blog. Please adhere to the submissions guidelines as this makes it easier for us to review them. Interested? Submit now! Blog submissions are open year-round. Submissions for Issue IX: Welcome To Wonderland are open! Submit to blog Submit to Issue IX

Issue I: Look Up At The Stars October 2022 What do the stars symbolise for you? What are you reminded you when you look up at the stars? For RTS's first online issue, we invited artists to submit pieces that revolved around the stars, whether this was through a character, metaphors, symbolism or more. We asked them to let their imagination run wild and send us their best work!! ​ Our contributors went above and beyond with their pieces for this theme.

Issue VII: Arcane Arcades April 2024 Throughout history, humans have found ways to entertain themselves. The oldest board game in the world, Mancala, was invented in 6000 BCE. Europe during the Middle Age was filled with games of skill and outdoor games. There's even archaeological evidence to suggest prehistoric people played some form of games. ​ No matter where you're from or how old you are or what you do in life, you would have played games. Video games, word games, traditional games, online games, board games... the list is endless. In this issue, we wanted to talk about these games. What do these games symbolize for people? Are they merely a respite from the grueling days of mundanity? Are they a form of connection to our community, and a way for us to bond with the people around us? Do they remind us of lives once lived, moments we'll never get back again? Do people like words and love giving our brains mental challenges? ​ We wanted to hear about this source of entertainment. We asked our readers to choose a single game, or talk about games as a whole. We asked them to write as an observer, or from the point of view of inside a game itself. Our readers went above and beyond with their works. We hope this curation of pieces reminds you of games you have played with your loved ones, times forever enshrined in your memories. Take the opportunity to immerse yourselves in the arcades of games our pieces will explore. Happy or sad, funny or serious, silly or stupid, we have it all.

Meet The Team Every successful organisation has a number of people working hard behind it. We take this opportunity to introduce you to our wonderful magazine team who strive hard to get each issue of Rewrite The Stars Review out into the world to make publishing a reality for all of you! Founder & Editor in Chief Smrithi Senthilnathan (she/her) Smrithi Senthilnathan is a young writer from India. From a very young age, she's nurtured a passion for reading books and writing stories. As someone who has submitted to a lot of literary magazines and has faced her fair share of acceptances and rejections, she hopes this initiative will be a new start and a turning point for aspiring writers. She believes anything and everything has a story, and she's dedicated her life to uncovering the unwritten stories of the world. This fall, she'll be joining college where she hopes to pursue Journalism and Data Science. When she's not writing maniacally, you can find her playing the piano or reading with a steaming cup of hot chocolate in hand :) Head of Staff Varshha (she/her) Varshha is a 17 year old human from Chennai, India, who procrastinates by staring at the stars on the terrace and reading romance books. Loving all things dystopian, she is an artist and a writer who can never seem to write/draw for the genre. If she’s not reading random facts on the internet or watching the ISU championships, she is probably imagining her living in a dystopian future. Head of Content Madhusree Guha Madhusree (she/her) is a 16-year-old junior who is a fresh and passionate writer, with a unique style that combines the intensity of a summer evening with a dash of spring. Dedicated to creating meaningful and thought-provoking content for her readers, she enjoys drinking coffee and reading in her free time. Head of Marketing & Social Media MG (she/her) MG is one of the many teenagers who's in love with writing and reading. Fantasy is her specialty, mystery thriller is her companion, and action adventure is her favourite glittering decoration. She is currently juggling 5 wips, school, 2 social medias—at this point she would pass as a clown in a circus, and that's the thing with the clowns: they somehow don't drop anything. Head of Content Jeannie Lam (she/her) Jeannie started writing in 24-sized neon pink font but now writes historical fantasy and constantly thinks about literary devices. If she's not admiring her collection of special edition books, she's writing or stressing about her Christian literary magazine, Waves of Words. Editor Briar (she/her) Briar has been writing poetry since highschool and is based in Australia. She has completed a Diploma of Arts. She enjoys many forms of storytelling including film and games. Graphic Designer Jann Rose (she/her) She is your real life Rapunzel, getting out of her tower, trying to understand humans and their way of communication. The things she understands are art and books. If she is not daydreaming, she can be found procrastinating. She is a kid in the brain and Christian at heart. Content Writer Jason Wu (he/him) Jason Wu (age 17) is an ardent reader, writer, and content creator. He has a plethora of experience in writing action, romantic comedy, and transmigration stories. His passion for writing and coding has been guiding him towards a path as a game designer. Apart from being a full time student, he is also a volunteer for Lemcnsun Entertainment (a mobile game company based in Shanghai, China) and has worked on many dolls/characters as well as events. Some of his favorite dolls are Alisa, Akaset, and Minerdwen. Editor Ava (she/her) Ava Hubbart is a 19 year old English Major at the University of Georgia. She has a passion for all things literature and has recently gotten back into the world of writing with several short stories and a few poems. Outside of reading fiction, she loves listening to podcasts, playing D&D, and learning about anything space-related. Ava aspires to make a career as a book editor. She can’t wait to take every opportunity she can in the field and help other writers grow. Content Writer Kaz / Sunny Kaz (Sunny Solaris) is a 13 year old Chinese-Filipino high schooler living in Australia. Despite the fact she is young, she has been part of the online writing community since she was 10. She started writing long and detailed non-fiction pieces at school which eventually lea to writing high fantasy and mystery novels. She is often found playing multiple gacha games, acting as a cat mom, and studying the sciences as a fan of it — biochemistry, forensics sciences, and theoretical physics in particular. Content Writer Carina (she/her) Carina is a 13-year-old non-fiction writer from the United States. Her love for educating others through non-fiction writing began when she would write research essays for school in third-fourth grade. Now, she wishes to expand her writing journey by publishing her non-fiction and opinion pieces in blogs, magazines, and newspapers. She has also recently started to branch out from non-fiction. Some of Carina’s favorite things are horror/mystery films and movies, learning about history, and studying psychology. Content Writer Milica (she/her) Milica is a freshman in high school with a passion for reading and writing. She enjoys spending her evenings sipping a peach iced tea and typing away at her laptop screen (sometimes even staring at a blank page). Ever since she was 9 years old, Milica’s been fighting her writer’s block while consuming books at a dangerous rate of about 50 per year. Mysteries and thrillers are her guilty pleasure and as much as she reads them she also writes them. Content Writer Tatum Bunker (she/her) Tatum Bunker attends Utah Valley University to major in Criminology with a minor in creative writing. She loves thrifting and has a major sweet tooth.

A voracious reader, she finds solace and excitement in the realms crafted by her favourite authors. With a heart fuelled by imagination in balance to a logical mind, she crafts her own tales and ideologies weaving words into enchanting stories that mirror the depth of her own spirit. Amidst the pages, she discovers not just stories, but fragments of her own evolving narrative and philosophies. In her free time you will find her either volunteering, roaming around ( anywhere outside the house), reading, writing or sleeping.

Issue V: Jabberwocky October 2023 jabberwocky noun invented or meaningless language; nonsense . "the translation was slow and full of jabberwocky" In an era of scientific advancement, creatives and writers are being pushed to the background. Writers churn out content, making each piece more philosophical and poetic than the next. Often, writers are pressurized to write flawless descriptions that showcase a command over the English language that us ordinary mortals do not hold. ​ This pressure is especially heightened on teenagers and youngsters, who are expected to have everything figured out and write deep pieces, and it's so much that people often forget that we're literal kids. ​ This issue is to remind our young audience that it's okay to be goofy, it's okay to enjoy "cringe" things, its okay to make immature silly jokes. You're still a kid, and you don't need to know everything. ​ On behalf of the entire team of RTS, I hope issue v: jabberwocky takes away some of the pain and stress of life and allows you to relax and laugh a little. This issue is entirely based on nonsensical, funny and wacky quotes that we hope will bring a smile to your face in their interpretations. From scientific irony to unhinged rants against carrot cake, this issue truly will take you on a journey. A journey we hope you will enjoy.

About Us Welcome to Rewrite The Stars! Run by teens for teens, we are a literary magazine aimed at uplifting youth and marginalized creators. We believe that artists have the power to change the world and rewrite the stars, if you may. There are many young teen writers out there with beautiful words who dream of being published but unfortunately don't get the right platform to. The formal publishing world is looking for the kind of writing that doesn't come naturally to teenagers, because we are kids and can't be expected to know everything about the world. There seems to be no platform for teenagers to write about issues and things they care about, or include humor and sarcasm in their stories when all anyone ever wants is emotionally resonant prose and poetry that makes you cry. Don't get us wrong - we love crying - but we want to celebrate optimistic and heartwarming writing too! Where do you go if you want to relax and read work that makes you smile? Enter Rewrite The Stars Review. At RTS, we will treasure EVERY piece sent to us, by publishing it in our magazine or giving you detailed feedback and resources that helps you improve. Trust us with your submissions <3 ​ Moreover, we hope this becomes a space where readers and writers can come together and spread joy of the craft. Whether through our issues or blog posts or features, we want to celebrate creativity. We believe that everyone can reach the audience they deserve. All we ask for is your support. Help spread the word about our magazine, send us your pieces, and engage in our activities. We look forward to reading all your wonderful pieces!!!

Issue VIII: The Human Experience July 2024 Who are you? Who are we? What is our purpose on this planet? Why do we think? Why do we act? Why do we form groups? Why do we do what we do? How do we define ourselves? How do we know the things we love? What shapes our personalities? What causes our thoughts? What drives our actions? What influences our relationships? What defines our lives? What does it mean to be human? Psychological, biological, philosophical, or fantastical - whatever perspective you choose to go with, this is the question we wanted answered. We asked our readers to tell us in their own words and art what humanity and humaneness meant to them. We asked them to explain to us the human experience, in all its wonders and scars, beauty and flaws.
