InFame Anthology of Modern Fiction

A project of CultureCult Press (see other related projects).

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (June 2026). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

CultureCult Press invites submissions for InFame, an anthology that explores the seductive, destructive and often terrifying realities of fame in the modern world. Fame has never been more accessible, or more dangerous. A single post can turn an ordinary person into a viral celebrity overnight. Influencers create empires through carefully curated personas. Reality stars sacrifice privacy for relevance. Aspiring artists, athletes, politicians and entertainers pursue recognition in an increasingly crowded and harsh landscape.

We seek original fiction that looks at the costs of visibility, the obsession with status, public scrutiny, online celebrity culture, manufactured personas, canceled careers, exploitation, ambition, jealousy, corruption, identity loss and the psychological effects of being known or desperately wanting to be. Whether your story is literary, crime thriller, science fiction, horror, satire, dark comedy, speculative fiction or contemporary drama, we want powerful narratives that uncover fame’s dark sides.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
