THEMED:

Postcards from Hell are horror stories. Postcards from Uranus are science fiction stories. Postcards from The Woody End are fantasy stories. If accepted for publication, your story will be assigned one of these three categories. Beyond that, we are open to any territorial crossings you care to explore, not limited to the three above-mentioned genres, plus: future urban fantasy, steampunk science fiction, historic erotic horror, western mystery monster, science fantasy thriller, or whatever strikes your fancy. We're easy that way.

Accuracy We have received 88 reports within the past 12 months, not including 1 pending response (waiting 1 days) and not including 3 ignored reports (reports are ignored when the submitter has an unrealistic overall acceptance/rejection ratio). The more responses reported, the more accurate the info. Rejections are often underreported, which skews the statistics in favor of acceptances. Most markets have a lower acceptance rate than indicated here.

Before Submitting
We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close overnight. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Just remember ...

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For novel/collection publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript.  Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Include a SASE with all mailed submissions, queries, and requests for guidelines.
  • Be professional, patient and persistent.
