All content can be submitted through our website or sent to the editor directly: editor@burgundyzine.com. Any accompanying files, such as pictures, video, audio, etc… can be forwarded to the editor via email, Google Drive, or Dropbox.
More submission guidelines for writing, art, photography, and music can be found on our submissions page.
You will be credited by name, pen name, or blog (please let us know which you prefer) in the byline of the post with links to your website along with any social media you would like us to include in the footer of the post.
In the magazine, you will be listed in the credits within the first few pages and will be credited in the byline of the article, as well.
The Burgundy Zine is published in US-English and loosely follows AP style (we refuse to drop the Oxford comma). All submissions will be edited by us to follow these guidelines.
We feature just about any and all content submitted to us, whether it’s an article, a photo story, a song, or an album. You might find yourself in a bind if your submission is wildly inappropriate — and even then, it’d have to be pretty extreme for us to turn you away.
You will be credited by name/pen name for your submission and we’ll link back to your website, plus any social media you tell us to mention. You’ll also be tagged on social media when we share the post, so long as we can find your page.
The editor of The Burgundy Zine is burgundy bug, an experienced content writer, webmaster, photographer, and graphic designer. She’s a college student who began the project in Dec. 2018.
Her inspiration for The Burgundy Zine struck during the winter break following her first semester writing for her college’s newspaper.
Right now, it’s mainly just the editor, burgundy bug. She handles the web design and maintenance, outreach and social media, the majority of the writing, edits submissions, and lays out the entire magazine.
Here are the fun facts: • The Burgundy Zine was started on Dec. 13, 2018.
• In two years, we’ve had over 140 guest contributors, featured over 200 musicians, and have interviewed almost 90 people.
• The Burgundy Zine was originally intended to be a small, monthly zine of about 15 pages. The last few issues have been over 100 pages.
• The origin of burgundy bug’s name is disappointingly simple; her favorite color is burgundy and she likes to photograph bugs, particularly butterflies and bees.
• burgundy bug is also allergic to bees. Oops.
• burgundy bug has recently graduated with associate degrees in liberal arts and journalism. She is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences and intends on obtaining a P.h.D. in neuroscience afterward.
