Le Scat Noir MATURE CONTENT

A project of Black Scat Books (see other related projects).

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (June 2018). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

Taking its cue from the 19th century weekly bohemian magazine Le Chat Noir in Paris, LSN features art, fiction, poetry, news and opinions. Absurdist in nature, the publication has scatological trimmings and is both a divertissement and sucker punch.

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.

  • 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.
