We accept short stories from 500-7,500 words in length.
We are not a “genre” magazine. We are looking for quality writing in any subject. We want interesting themes, characters, and unexpected resolutions. We aim to be the kind of journal that is difficult to define. We seek to surprise readers. We are open and eclectic.
But to narrow it down somewhat, we love mysterious subjects, ambiguity, thematic focus, and emotional impact. We love surprises and content that shocks (not meaning anything pornographic).
Move us, take unexpected turns. Above all, never bore us with 30-page ramblings that go nowhere–We will trash this kind of junk.
Last of all, write from the most honest knowledgeable place in your heart and we will pay attention.
Please submit your work in Word, Text, or RTF files. NO PDFs please. No email or postal submissions. For all submissions, please include your name, address, email address, and word count on your stories. Also please include a 25-50 word THIRD PERSON bio with the submission.
We have no submission deadlines. Please expect a three month wait (at the most) for our decision. If we are slow with this, we apologize in advance. Feel free to send us a nudge!
