We are ok with gore/violence if it fits the story.
We are NOT OK with stories that include graphic SA, promoting prejudice/hatred, or any sort of pedophilia.
Do not use characters and settings from IPs you do not own. As much as I would love to read about Casey and Finnegan being a serial killer’s Schizophrenic hallucination, this is not a fan fiction request. I really do not want to get sued.
No AI / ChatGPT generated stories.
Email your stories to [email protected] Please add “Oh Canada Submission:” to the subject of the email when submitting.
