Hello from Outlook Springs!

Submissions are currently closed while we finish summoning Issue 9 from the netherverse. It's taking longer than usual; the gremlins don't chant the way they used to. (Do please forgive us for the long hiatus; we've had babies and deaths.)

When we are open for submissions, if we hit our Submittable limit, submissions will close until the first of the next month.

Send us your weird, wobbly wordwork: fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. See genres for specific submission guidelines, but here's a quick rundown:

• Please only one submission at a time.
• Please submit only once per Reading Period.
• Of course simultaneous submissions are OK. They should always be OK.
• Word limit is about 10k. if you can't wrap up that whale of a story and need like 10,004 words, I guess that's okay. 
• Payment is $10 per poem, $10 per flash piece (under 1,000 words), $25 for short fiction and essays (over 1,000 words). Payment via PayPal or Venmo.
• Double-spaced, Times New Roman is good, but hey, you do you! 
• Please don't hide any curses or hexes in your semi-colons (ahem, Dave)
• See our site for some examples of what we publish (www.outlooksprings.com)
• No counterfeit exclamation points or hyphens
