Ideomancer
publishes
speculative fiction and poetry that explores the edges of ideas;
stories that subvert, refute and push the limits. We want unique pieces
from authors willing to explore non-traditional narratives and take
chances with tone, structure and execution, balance ideas and
character, emotion and ruthlessness. We also have an eye for more
traditional tales told with excellence.
We
are especially interested in non-traditional formats, hyperfiction,
and work that explores the boundaries not just of its situation but of
the internet-as-page.
We
are open to submissions during December-January, March-April,
June-July, September-October. Any
stories or poems submitted to us during the months of November,
February, May, and August will be deleted unread.
Ideomancer
does not accept
simultaneous or multiple submissions.
Submissions
will be replied to inside 30 days. If you haven't heard from us in 30
days, please send
a query with the subject line
"Query: Your Story Title".
