SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
WAITING ROOM entertains and educates our readers using a new attitude towards cancer. We take the hard issues surrounding cancer and present them in same way that other cutting-edge, youth culture magazines present their focused content.
Dealing with a subject that crosses racial and class boundaries, affords us the opportunity to address something universial, and universally feared more than anything else in our culture.
We invite submissions from every perspective of people dealing with cancer-from patients, their family and friends, survivors, oncologists, nurses, to people who have never experienced cancer but have an opinion about something cancer related.
Your submission must fall outside the stereotypical dialogue about cancer.
We encourage levity, brutal honesty, and are not opposed to material some might deem socially inappropriate.
Entertaining, informative submissions are strongly suggested.
Product, book, and movie reviews must provide information used to navigate and improve the cancer experience.
A journalistic approach to stories is preferred. Memoirs are discouraged.
For non-fiction articles including investigative reporting, primary sources must be included for fact checking.
Articles and stories should not exceed 2,000 words.
We are not responsible for unsolicited materials.
Do not send original photos/artwork/slides, or any other original material.
