Plott Hound Magazine - Fiction (Poetry) (Nonfiction)



Description
What We’re Looking For:
-Stories with anthropomorphized animals as protagonists

-Animal-centric speculative fiction (fantasy, science fiction, horror)

-Underrepresented voices (BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, disabled, neurodivergent) that engage with animal myths, tales, and futures

-Stories with uncommonly written about animals as protagonists

-Stories that dig deep into the senses and experience of animals

-Stories that explore the cultures and societies of animals, not just cultures and societies with animals. Think of rabbit language and warren infrastructure in Watership Down, or the clans and warrior code of feral cats in Warriors.
