Espresso Fiction

This project is believed to be defunct. (April 2010)

About

We are ALWAYS looking for entertaining stories. We want stories that challenge, intrigue, provoke, stimulate and resonate. Our subscribers enjoy reading fiction but rarely find time to read a novel or go looking for interesting short stories. If the story that we send them is the only bit of fiction they read all week, it has to be a great read - satisfying, refreshing, just like a good cup of coffee. We are expanding into different markets and now require a broader range of fiction, including fiction for children.

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.
