Fledgling Listing: This project is new and has been listed with us for less than six months.

About

footshooter. is a literary mixtape.

We have a punk ethos paired with a mid-90's alternative rock aesthetic.

Nostalgia kills/Memory lives within the pages of our zine. We're not interested in "the good old days" or living in the past—we care about universal truth and experience that we all make uniquely our own.

We love stories that demand to be written and demand to be read. Voice and prose that is distinct, sincere, and has teeth. Irony, winking at the reader, and emotional distance will never make our pages.

Our mission is to stand at the intersection of our passion for literature and music. If that sounds like you, we invite you to the party.

footshooter. is committed to being inclusive. No matter your race, sexual orientation, gender, religion, or class—as long as you're a good person, come on into the pit.

Conversely, we do not tolerate racism, bigotry, sexism, right-wing politics, or any other form of hate and discrimination.

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.
