Why Submit to Spectator?

  • Spectator Magazine has been produced annually for multiple generations of NCHS students – we encourage students to become a part of this literary legacy.

  • The Spectator Literary Magazine is an opportunity for students to share their work with peers, teachers, family, and friends.

  • To be published in a literary magazine is a big accomplishment, and can help build up resumes, applications, and, of course, one's self-esteem.


The Process of Submission:

  1. Enter your work into this FORM or submit below

  • If your submission is for the magazine (a poem, short story, or art piece) simply attach a PDF of your writing or art into the form. Please specify through the form if you would like to be considered for writing/art of the month.

  • If your submission is for the website (in the form of a podcast, short film, or spoken word video) rather than for the magazine, please email us as at nchs.spectator@ncps-k12.org and include an accessible link in your email

2. Submissions are reviewed anonymously at a Spectator club meeting

  • If the piece is accepted (sometimes with minor edits), your name will be revealed. Otherwise you will remain anonymous.

3. Accepted is published in our digital magazine in June!

  • Exceptional work will be featured on the website or the Instagram page with your permission!
