Fiction - 4000 words max

Max words: 4000

Max pieces: 1

Short stories, flash fiction. We prefer stories that examine the everyday, that infuse the quotidian with magic, that explore our interactions with the people and world around us in an interesting way. We don’t have preferences genre-wise but would discourage horror submissions and aren’t big fans of ‘twist’ endings.

Nonfiction - 4000 words max

Max words: 4000

Max pieces: 1

Essays and creative non-fiction. We’re especially interested in articles about history, culture, current affairs, politics, technology, and the environment.

Poetry

We also like the abstract and absurd. We do have a preference for non-rhyming work though won’t rule out work that does rhyme.

We are also looking to interview more artists so if you have a show coming up in London, Birmingham or Lancaster, do let us know about it.
