Sequestrum - Deadline 12/15/24

Theme: Science Fiction & Fantasy

Science Fiction & Fantasy are loaded terms in literature. There’s swords and sorcery, as well as aliens and artificial intelligence, sure. But there’s also escaping a cubicle. There’s defeating disease. There’s finding a way to the past, the future. Finding a path without limitations. There are other worlds out there, and every one helps us understand our own a little better. In short, we want your best writing with a fantastical element. Fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or some combination thereof. Make the familiar strange and the strange familiar. As always, wow us. Thrill us. Never bore us. We’re eager to read your best. Deadline 12/15.
