flashScience FictionFantasyHorrorMysteryRomancePays: $5 USD flat payment per accepted story, paid through PayPal.

Ongoing open call for polished, character-driven speculative flash fiction with complete stories, preferably intimate or rural in setting. All speculative subgenres are welcome, though military, political, and alien-based science fiction may be harder to sell. Stories must be 1,000-1,500 words, previously unpublished, and cannot be AI-generated; no poetry, reprints, or bigotry, hateful language, or sexual assault. Payment is $5 per accepted story via PayPal.
