We are seeking original short stories of 1,500 to 8,500 words length that feature fantasy elements and pre-industrial settings. Historical and pseudo-historical settings are fine provided they are set before 1800. We are not looking for contemporary urban fantasy or steampunk stories. We are paying $10 per story, review or essay for first world-wide publication rights.
