Good news, writers! We’re opening for submissions from all writers, agented or non-agented, on September 1, 2021. We’ve been closed to general submissions for about a year, accepting submissions only from BIPOC writers. Now we are looking for 2-3 novellas, novels, or short story collections to publish in 2022 or 2023. BIPOC, LGBTQ2S, disabled and other marginalized writers are still very much encouraged to submit.<\/p>
If you’re not familiar with what we’ve published before, have a look at our books here<\/a>. On that page you can find links to excerpts and video readings, plus all the usual synopses and cover art. If you’re thinking of submitting, please read about the press<\/a> and the kind of work we’re interested in, and our submissions guidelines<\/a>. You can also read about our editorial, publicity, and design team here<\/a>.<\/p> We recently did an interview with Toronto’s Word on the Street team, and this video gives a great overview of the press and some of the stories that we’ve already published. Publisher and Editor-In-Chief Selena Middleton and authors Sim Kern (Depart, Depart!<\/em>) and Cynthia Zhang (After the Dragons<\/em>) talk climate fiction, the power of speculative fiction, and the connections between these genres and subgenres and queer stories.<\/p>
