Theme: literary fiction

What kinds of stories is One Story looking for?
One Story is seeking literary fiction. Because of our format, we can only accept stories between 3,000 and 8,000 words. They can be any style and on any subject as long as they are good. We are looking for stories that leave readers feeling satisfied and are strong enough to stand alone.
Does One Story pay?
Yes. One Story pays $500 and 25 contributors copies for First Serial North American rights. All rights will revert to the author following publication.
Does One Story accept previously published material?
No. One Story is looking for previously unpublished material. However, if a story has been published in print outside of North America, it will be considered. Stories previously published online—on blogs, personal websites, online literary magazines, or forums—will not be accepted.

These horoscopes are completely fictional as a piece of creative writing, and are based on fictional scenarios, and are not meant to be accurate representations of actual people and their life situations, and/or representative of people who consider themselves to be under the guidance of these astrological signs. These horoscopes are also not meant to be considered in any astrological, actual, and/or verified scientific or psychological capacity. Meaning I made them all up out of my imagination, so please don’t make any major—or even minor—life decisions based on these horoscopes. Human zombies don’t exist. Yet.)
