WRITERS & ARTISTS GUIDELINES

Send all submissions to Randy Dannenfelser, Editor, PO Box 807, Xenia, OH 45385, or send e-mail submissions (RTF or ASCII files) to double_star@yahoo.net. And, the best way to find out what we want to buy, is to see what we have already bought. In other words, pick up a sample copy of the magazine at a bookstore, or order one directly from us.

Fiction:

We are looking for Sword & Sorcery, High Fantasy, and Heroic Fantasy fiction from 1000 to 8000 words. We want fiction with an emphasis on action and adventure, but still cognizant of the struggles within as they play against the struggles without. As examples, think of the fiction of J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert Jordan, Fritz Leiber, and Katherine Kurtz, but with 90's sensibilities. Include sexual content only as required by the story, but not excessive/porn. Pays $0.03-0.06/word on acceptance for FNASR.

Please include a cover letter with credits and submit the story in the standard format for fiction submissions. Enclose with the submission a self-addressed, stamped envelope with sufficient postage for return of the submission (but we prefer disposable submissions). Use International Reply Coupons as return postage if submitting from outside the U.S.

*Recently looking for more adventuresome work, more emphasis on sword, less sorcery (primarily because the fiction we've been getting is unbalanced in the other direction). Think about the audience we are targeted at, and send us appropriate stories.
