Submission Guidlines
We are currently accepting submissions of fiction and non-fiction in the following categories:
- Science Fiction
- Fantasy Fiction
- Horror Fiction
- Weird Fiction
- Reviews
- Fact Articles
- Editorials/Commentary
We are primarily looking for works of fiction up to 10,000 words but feel free to submit works of shorter (flash fiction) or longer (serializable) length as well. We are also looking for reviews, commentary and non-fiction articles of a scientific or entertainment industry related nature We purchase non-exclusive audio rights to stories for which such rights are available regardless of previous publication history. We do, however, prefer not to re-broadcast fiction that has already been published in audio on another fiction podcast.
We can only offer modest financial compensation at this time but also offer a certain amount of exposure through links, a biographical sketch included with each story and an optional 5-10 minute self narrated promotional/introductory statement by each author whose work we publish. Currently our rates are $0.01 (USD) per word for fiction and $20.00 (USD) flat for non-fiction. Donations of fiction or non-fiction are also gladly accepted.
This podcast will be distributed under a creative commons license and authors will retain all copyrights to their work.
If you have a work (or works) that you would be interested in submitting, please do so in plain text format (RTF is ok) as an attachment to an email addressed to: submissions@sfzine.org
Please be sure to include your full name, contact information and any biographical information you may be willing to share.
Current turn-around time for the consideration of submissions is in the range of 1-2 months.
Thank you,
