We believe it is artistically important that our contributors retain the copyright to their own work. Therefore, all individual contributors retain their own copyright.

 

All work is submitted by contributors as previously unpublished work, and subsequently selected by Superlative’s editors. Superlative therefore cannot accept responsibility or liability for any infringement of copyright or otherwise arising out of the publication thereof.

​

By submitting work to Superlative, writers are agreeing that they are happy for Superlative to publish their work in the current issue, or on Superlative's website. When a submitted piece is selected by our editors, contributors are contacted to confirm acceptance. Contributors are then contacted again and provided with a proof copy of their work, formatted as it will be printed, to confirm everything is as it should be. If contributors are non-responsive, Superlative still reserves the right to publish the piece under the writer's name.

​

Writers may contact us at any time up until publication to withdraw a piece of work. After a manuscript has been sent for publication, we will be unable to withdraw work.

​

Ross Turner, Editor-in-Chief, takes sole responsibility for the Superlative name and rights.
