Submission Guidelines

HCR welcomes original and unpublished submissions written in either Spanish or English. Contributions should relate to the arts, culture, linguistics, and literature of Spanish-speaking countries. The journal publishes poetry, brief narratives, and photography. Certain editions cover a specific theme that all contributions should follow. For a work to be considered, the following specifications must be followed; if the specifications are not followed, the work will be disqualified:

• The maximum number of works per author is 2, which must be sent as separate files. Those submitting photography and visual arts works are allowed to send up to 6 works.

• The only method for submission is through: hispanicculturereview.submittable.com/submit

• Written works must be written in Arial 12pt font and academic works and essays must follow the current MLA or APA style.

• Maximum length allowed for the texts:

• Academic essays & investigations: 3,000 words (including footnotes).

• Narrative: 2,500 words.

• Poetry: 50 lines maximum.

• Visual Arts: photographs must be in JPEG format and 300 ppi.

Only unedited work will be accepted, which means works that have not been published before or are pending revision in other media. This includes printed and electronic work. Works written in both Spanish and English will be accepted.

There are no age or nationality restrictions to participate, except in the case that the person has his/her fiscal residence in any of the countries subject to the sanctions of the United States government, since it would be impossible to send the monetary prize to the winner.
