Call for submissions 4/3/2025
This is a call for submissions of poetry and alternative fiction i.e. sci fi/speculative/dystopian fiction or fantasy. Just to put it out there; I have no budget and no staff. I can’t pay you for your art. Hopefully you will find a reason to participate when you hear the full offer.
Event Horizon is a new iteration of an old publication. Event Horizon Magazine is/will be a triannual journal of poetry and fiction. The next edition will be published when enough accepted works have been accumulated for an edition of about 50 pages.
Please submit one or two poems. Only one may be accepted and published.
Please submit your fiction story. As stated, the expected submission will conform to science fiction, speculative, dystopian or fantasy fiction genres. Your story should be within a minimum of 9000 words and a maximum of 15000 words. I am the editor/publisher; I will choose the works – not surprisingly – according to my own sense of quality and suitability. My expectation is that the journal will present offerings of the highest literary quality.
The journal when published will be available as a free pdf download and as a print-on-demand magazine.
I will promote the journal. I’m building a web presence for Event Horizon with a blog and posts to Facebook, Instagram and potentially other platforms. I’ll ask you if I can make Instagram videos of me reading your work or posting excerpts to Facebook. There will be residual promotion and exposure from the promotion of my book as well. The only return I can promise you is eyeballs on the journal and eyeballs and dollars on any print-on-demand sales you can generate. What it will cost you is your time, and your dedication to promoting your art. There will be no fees to pay. The rights to your work remain 100% yours.
