AFP Submission Guidelines and Rules
Updated February 1, 2025
Do you enjoy writing articles and stories in a conversational style that maybe happens to include some cussing and swear words, especially the word fuck? Do you also enjoy reading conversational articles and stories that don’t water down the language?
Then we have the publication for you!
We don’t have a specific writing niche here at AFP, and we don’t fucking care about your writing experience, but we do have some basic fucking rules and guidelines you’ll need to follow if you want to write for us.
Rules and Requirements:
- Follow the fucking publication.
- Allow private messaging on your stories.
- Have a paid Medium membership — whether it is $5 or $15 doesn’t matter.
- No fucking AI text or generated articles. We do check occasionally.
- No fucking plagiarism. Cite your sources.
- Medium’s rules of conduct are law. No hateful speech or comments will be tolerated. Comments will be monitored, so respect other writers’ and readers’ opinions.
- Only submit drafts. We will not accept anything previously published anywhere else.
- Use a fucking title case converter. No periods at the end of a title.
- And this is the most important rule of all — each article or story submitted must contain the word “fuck” somewhere in the text. It does not have to be in the title but must be found somewhere in the article or story. The second part of this rule is that we do not want the word “fuck” to be used sexually.
What do we accept?
Any well-written story, article, or poem, fiction or non-fiction, that includes the word “fuck” somewhere in the content. It’s really that simple. We will accept thriller, horror, comedy, romance, etc. Hell, we will even accept fucking recipes.
We are still editors, and editing is in our blood, so although we will fix minor errors occasionally, we will reject poorly written articles that don’t make sense. We want this to be a high-quality publication showcasing high-quality writing.
