Submission calls

fictionFantasyHorrorHumorPays: $0.08 per word for original fiction; $100 flat rate for reprints over 1,500 words; $20 flat rate for flash fiction reprints under 1,500 words.

Open to all fantasy subgenres, including magical realism, urban fantasy, slipstream, and high fantasy; fantastical elements should be meaningful. Short fiction is preferred, with a 3,000–4,000-word sweet spot and a 6,000-word maximum. Reprints are welcome; reprints over 6,000 words require a prior query and originals over 6,000 words are not accepted. Selkie stories are a hard sell.

flashFantasyHorrorHumorPays: $20 flat rate for flash fiction reprints under 1,500 words.

Flash fiction reprints under 1,500 words are welcome and encouraged; originals remain subject to the 6,000-word maximum.
