Process
We use email.
Cover letters
We read blind. While there are no penalties for having identifying information on your document, we will ask you to remove it before we read. This is to prevent any subconscious biases- we’re people, after all, we don’t read in a vacuum.
Eligibility
No specific eligibility requirements
Formatting
Stories can be in any format except traditional prose. Stories told in forum messages? Great! Police blotters? Excellent! Receipts? If you can swing that, we want to see it!
Rights for published work
We do not look to obtain exclusivity. Our contract is for a one-time license for publication and promotion, after which we must ask to include you in anything else.
Additional info
Previously published is allowed. We don’t discriminate in pay between reprints and original fiction. Pays! For the General Zine: $0.01/word plus 50% Royalties after printing. For Between the Shelves (Online only): $20 flat.
