Cover letters

Coming soon! Advice from editors on what your cover letter and bio should look like!

Eligibility

All marginalized creators

Formatting

Please use Modern Manuscript Format (classic will still be accepted), and upload your manuscript as a Word or Word compatible file (.docx, .doc, .rtf., .odt).

Rights for published work

We ask for first serial rights and non-exclusive, indefinite archival rights, though the author is welcome at any time to request a story be removed from the archive.

Additional info

We are particularly interested in #ownvoices stories. You should receive a reply to stories under seventeen thousand words in sixty days. Expect a longer response time for novellas (seventeen thousand words and up). We do not accept stories written by AI or machine-learning technology. We want to experience the author’s unique voice and creativity in their own submitted work.

About the Magazine

Founded in 2010 | United States

Giganotosaurus (the dinosaur) lived about ninety million years ago, and it was almost the largest carnivorous dinosaur. A little bigger than Tyrannosaurus, a little smaller than Spinosaurus. GigaNotoSaurus (the webzine, edited by LaShawn Wanak) publishes one longish fantasy or science fiction story monthly. Longish meaning longer than a short story, and shorter than a novel.

Masthead

We currently list only main editors, more will be added later! If you are an editor, you can edit your masthead in our admin panel :)
