@extrateethmag.bsky.social OMBGG* That was a splendid evening, bewildered and enchanted to be allowed to be part of it. Issue 10 is a stunning thing. And @portybooks.bsky.social is a wonderful haven.

We thank you for respecting our guidelines, and happy submitting!
The burden of suspecting, checking and confirming that a writer has used AI falls to our readers, which means the time spent on these submissions far outweighs the time spent reading work written by humans.
02.12.2025 17:29 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0If you're wondering why we are only posting this now, it is because in the past any AI-assisted works made up a tiny fraction of the overall submissions. However, as AI use skyrockets we have to firmly implement it within our guidelines.
02.12.2025 17:29 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0*UPDATED SUBMISSION GUIDELINES*
Extra Teeth does not publish any work that has been written using Artificial Intelligence. We have only 16 spots per issue and remain committed to publishing the very best of new and established writers. Any AI-assisted work will not be considered for publication.
