So I'm prepared to submit a short story to, uhh, a certain short story publication when they open their subs in the new year. I'm looking at their guidelines ahead of time to make sure I have everything in order, and I got confused by some wording (redacting and bolding are mine).
Does this mean in the Word file or in the body of the email? I don't want to get this wrong and get my story dismissed out of hand. What do you guys think? I think I'm paranoid, but I can't do anything about it lol
Instructions: All writing must be submitted via email to (EMAIL). When submitting, include a little background information about yourself in the body and attach the story in the form of a Microsoft Word file. Please include a word count and a brief synopsis of the work.
