Funds earned through ARWZ Magazine go first to pay the basic operating costs of the Magazine.

Whatever is earned over and beyond our operating costs goes into a fund toward our long-range goal of offering our contributors a professional level of compensation. Professional rates are, for example, $0.05 per word for fiction. It may not seem like much when you're looking at the change in your pocket, but figure an average short story of 5,000 words, and you'll realize how quickly it adds up. Lending your support to ARWZ financially will help us realize our goal of growing into a professional literary magazine. The ability of ARWZ to pay professional rates means higher quality fiction, poetry and articles.

How can you help? There are a few ways currently available for you to contribute financially to ARWZ. The good news is, most of them don't involve your spending any money you wouldn't have parted with anyway.


USE OUR SEARCH BOXES AND LINKS

You can support ARWZ simply by using our Search Boxes to make online purchases you would have made anyway. Next time, instead of going straight to Amazon, use an ARWZ link or Search Box.
