Submissions should be formatted in .rtf and sent using our submission manager. We are particularly interested in stories with rural settings. We are a crime journal. We do consider reprints on a case-by-case basis with the following caveats: first, the story must not appear anywhere else online; second, we pay a flat fee of $25 for reprints.
