Other Stuff!
Please only submit your work once, and please only submit one work per submission period. Please only resubmit works that have already been rejected if invited to do so.
We believe that the horror genre’s diversity is its greatest strength, and we wish that viewpoint to be reflected in our story content and our submission queues. We are especially interested in hearing from those whose voices are underrepresented in the cosmic/weird. If comfortable, feel free to drop this information in your cover letter.
We strongly favor stories that use contemporary narrative styles.
