Pieces will be posted based on a first come first serve basis throughout the month of September in celebration of Literacy Month. Each piece will be screened before being posted to assert that it is family friendly, if the piece is deemed to not be family friendly the one submitting the piece will be informed of this and the piece submitted will not be posted.
