Literary submissions - early 2023

We are open for submissions.

We are looking for books that could only exist as printed books.

We are looking for books that capitalize on the potential in the fragility and mutability of language.

We are looking for books that step over the festering corpse of Naturalism. pic.twitter.com/nGniCMRscZ

People think our trigger warning policy is a barrier as if we don't get MORE excited for a submission labeled with body horror, death, cannibalism, etc.

We don't do April Fool's jokes around here. Life is foolish enough w/out that added pressure.

But we will say @ricketywhite starts reading for his guest issue on April 1st, so get those subs ready!

We ALWAYS have the free sub option. 100% of the time. & that ain't no joke.

Some great submissions already yesterday for @trampset thank you for trusting us with your words! If you’ve got some weird, furry, misshapen little critter hiding in the back of a drawer who you think no one could possibly love — be sure to send him my way!! pic.twitter.com/1XIgNBGMao

We're not interested in that whole genre fiction versus literature discourse. Another word for niche is rut, so whatever. We want to be suspended, rapt, awed by beauty. pic.twitter.com/gu0UDeT5hy
