Ecostamps
Ecostamps is a not-for-profit web-based submission management application that creates a win-win-win for writers, editors, and readers.
How Does Ecostamps Work?
  • Registration is FREE!
  • Writers pay a nominal fee per submission.
  • Editors use Ecostamps Report Cards to evaluate and grade submissions. Ecostamps Report Cards is our proprietary hyper-efficient evaluation tool that enables editors to provide substantive feedback on submissions with a few clicks of a mouse.
  • Editors earn $1 for their organization for each graded submission.
  • 100% of "profits" (fees after operating expenses) directly supports reading and literacy programs.
Editors benefit from a streamlined review process and have a mechanism and incentive to provide feedback to writers.
With each submission, writers directly support independent literary markets, helping to defray publication costs and, hopefully, enabling editors to pay writers for their work.
Most importantly, each submission through Ecostamps helps expand the universe of readers by providing direct financial support to literacy programs.
A world without readers needs neither editors nor writers. Ecostamps is a first step to ensure such a dismal and dispiriting world never exists.

Ecostamps: A Shared Commitment
Every year the chasm widens: writers submit more stories, poems, and essays to literary journals, while editors have fewer resources and become increasingly dependent on grants, donations, contest fees, and often their wallets to cover operating expenses.
Ecostamps is a market solution that aligns interests and provides incentives to create value for editors, writers, and readers.
The lynchpin enabling this virtuous circle of shared commitment: Ecostamps Report Cards.
