Submission calls

fictionHorrorMysteryPays: £10 per accepted story, paid on publication.

Submissions are open for Mixed Bag Volume 4 and will remain open until enough stories are accepted; the call may then pause while the volume is edited, produced, and published. Short horror fiction should feature endings that reframe rather than confirm. Stories must be the author's own work and not AI-generated; speculative horror and weird fiction are welcome. Reprints are welcome under stated conditions. Submit .doc or .docx files in standard manuscript format. Simultaneous submissions are allowed. £10 per accepted story, paid on publication.
