Submissions to Met
If you are a Cerro Coso student, alum, faculty member, staff member, or
invited guest artist/writer who would like to submit
to Met, please read
the following information and follow the instructions below.
Submission Overview
Met publishes poetry, short stories, creative
non-fiction, reviews, and literary scholarship and re-produces art in all
mediums. Submissions are taken year round.
Restrictions: Poets can submit up to eight poems.
Fiction writers and essayists can submit up to 8000 words. Artists can
submit up to eight pieces. All submissions must be previously unpublished.
Submission Process Step By Step
Follow these three steps carefully to ensure that your work gets routed
correctly. These steps must be repeated for each piece you submit.
- Save Your Work
- Formatting Literature: Save your
literary piece in Microsoft Word or RTF format. Be sure to name the
file using your last name plus an abbreviated form of the
submission’s title.
Example
Sullivan_Mammoth_Nights
- Formatting Art: Save your piece as a
high resolution 300 dpi jpeg or tiff file. Image dimensions should
not exceed 8”x10” in size. If you must photograph your piece (for
instance, a painting or sculpture), consider carefully the
composition and lighting of the shot. Be sure to name the file using
your last name plus an abbreviated form of the submission’s title.
Example
Krause_Sunset_on_Lake
- Fill Out the Submission Form: The
Submission Form collects all necessary
personal information and your permission to publish, so fill it out as
completely as possible. This submission form is only for collection of
information and is separate from the actual sending of your piece, which
is the final step ...
- Send Your Work Via Email: Once you have
completed the submission form above, then you are ready to send your
work via email:
- Open a new email message to
met@cerrocoso.edu
- In the subject line of the message, write “Met 2009: last name +
abbreviated title of piece”. Use the same abbreviated title that you
used when naming your file.

I wake in
the morning with an anvil on my chest and fine haze
before my eyes. I haven’t opened them yet—the eyes. When
I do, the haze does not lift. The anvil is large and
black and invisible. The haze has a slight greenish
tinge that is more than a little nauseating.
