Submissions
What I’m looking for…
The First Submission Period for 2024 is March 15-June 15!
And remember, our short story contest is coming soon. I am still searching for judges.
I’m looking for fiction that celebrates strong, vulnerable women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ individuals. I want stories that put those people at the center of the book. I want to read about them charting new paths, fighting for what is right, and finding the courage to make their life better. I want quirky reads.
I want stories that challenge the norm, take the story outside the box, and challenge my thinking. I want stories that will educate me and entertain me and inspire me to change.
I want stories that enlighten me. Give me hope. I want stories that teach me something new, show me places I’ve never been, and help me experience the world through another’s eyes. I want stories that change people’s lives and stories about people changing their own lives.
I am looking for everything that fits the above criteria. Fiction I’m most interested in is literary, contemporary, fantasy, science fiction, historical fiction, and speculative fiction. If it's got a feminist, BIPOC, or LGBTQ+ story, I want to read it!
Submission review will take about eight weeks after submission period ends. Submissions are not guaranteed publication.
