Q: Describe what you publish in 25 characters or less.
A: Weird, fresh, dreamscapes
Q: What sets your publication apart from others that publish similar material?
A: We are currently (to my own knowledge) the only publication that both focuses on (1) speculative fiction and (2) young and emerging writers.
Q: What is the best advice you can give people who are considering submitting work to your publication?
A: To keep in mind that speculative writing is a vast universe with countless new corners to explore; to never be constrained by rules and genres
Q: Describe the ideal submission.
A: Properly formatted email and manuscript; not overly exceeding the word count limit; not including extreme violence/gore just for the fun of it; no overly cliched plots and twists; no fantasy stories with little to no worldbuilding, explanation, context
Q: How much do you want to know about the person submitting to you?
A: Of course an impressive publication history is---well, impressive, but this ultimately doesn't give any priority over how quickly we review/respond to your work over other submitters, and because submissions are read blind, no one will know. We respond in the order submissions are sent. And as a publication catered towards young/emerging writers, our goal is not to build an exclusive, gated writing space for already-established writers.
Q: If you publish writing, how much of a piece do you read before making the decision to reject it?
A: Depends
