If we've published your story or we've used your artwork, we'll include you here in all your foul-fishy glory. We are happy to occasionally update to include new things you're proud of and would like people to find. You don't have to send us a picture, but if you don't you may find you've been represented by a bear, a kitten, a spooky doll or angry duck of our choosing.
