- How are submissions chosen for BAZOOF!™ Digi-Mag or Planet GLAK? Oay does his best to give all submissions that follow BAZOOF!™’s guidelines, a fair chance to be published. It can depend on the season, the length and variety needed, the topic, the volume of submissions being handled at the time, and a number of other factors that may lead to some submissions being published over others.
- Is there a way to know exactly what Oay is looking for? Submissions such as jokes, riddles, letters, photos, and artwork by youth are generally always open.
- How often may a child submit? As often as they wish!
- Can an adult assist a child with their submission? Yes, as long as they are taking on the role of guiding the child, rather than having too much of their own input. An adult can submit on behalf of a child.
- What privacy protections exist for youth? Since many young people have social media accounts and their photos may appear with their submissions, B! publishes only the child’s first name, age, and country. Parents may request that their child be listed under a pen name.
- When uploading an image, what file type is Oay looking for? Please send the largest file that you can. JPG at 300 dpi is ideal or a high-resolution PDF. If it is a photo/image from a cell phone, send it at the original size without reducing it.
- Do submissions receive pay? Expenses and time are incurred in publishing youth work, including volunteer hours. Although pay is not given, a child’s work being published is certainly treated as a privilege and an opportunity.
- If selected, how soon will my submission be published? Oay strives to publish selected submissions within 6 months, except for those with seasonal themes, which may take longer.
- How can I learn more about submissions? CONTACT Oay, he’d be happy to assist you!
Laugh. Discover. Grow.
