Our response to your work
If your work is being considered for publication, we will send you a postcard, usually within six weeks. Later, if your meditation is chosen for publication, you will receive a copyright release form to return to us. It may be as much as a year before a final decision is made. If you wish to be notified if your work is eliminated from consideration, include a stamped, self-addressed postcard for each meditation.
We buy the right to translate meditations for one-time use in our editions around the world, including electronic and software-driven formats, and to include them in future anthologies of Upper Room material should we choose. We pay $25.00 for each meditation, on publication.
We are unable to give updates on the status of submitted material or to offer critiques. All published meditations are edited.
Please be sure to include your postal address with each meditation, since we must send a form to be signed if your work is chosen for publication. If you submit by email, send your meditation as the body of the message, not as an attachment.
Meditations cannot be returned, so keep copies of what you submit. Please send no more than three meditations at a time. If you wish to know we have received your work, include a stamped, self-addressed postcard in addition to the one(s) previously mentioned. We will use the postcard to notify you that your work has reached us.
We look forward to receiving meditations from you to be considered for possible use in future editions of The Upper Room.
