About

What We Are Looking For: Fiction, poetry, and art in the Midwestern Gothic style. We are willing to consider some magical realism or supernatural elements in our selections, but we are not looking for straight-up fantasy or horror that happens to be set in the Midwest. Neil Gaiman's American Gods might fly here, but "Cthulu in Chicago" is too far down the scale for this publication. Submitters should have a connection to the North American Midwest, and works should be set in the Midwest, although we will consider an exceptional story featuring a Midwesterner living elsewhere. We are about your voice. Of course, with the web, anyone can self-publish, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, there is a certain amount of validation that comes with independent publication, and that is what we want to do. Editing and collating multiple-artist volumes, putting them on the web, and sharing the joy is what it is all about.

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. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • 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.
