About

Do not hesitate to send poems, stories, plays, photos, drawrings, or any multi-media you can imagine– although Zombie Fiction will not be considered, all other Sci-Fi, Fantasy and stories of Dis-reality, provided it is imaginative and different, will. We do not encourage work whose central theme is the braindead. Remember defenestration must be involved. Only the highest quality material will be accepted.

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.
