See the Elephant
Description
We are interested in literary and speculative fiction with a metaphysical slant. We seek stories that live in the borderlands between the real and the unreal, and between genres. We appreciate textures of darkness and light, evocative beauty and transcendental pain. We are not afraid of work that tackles social or political issues, but we like questions better than answers. We like irreverence and satire, symbolism and mythology. We require both entertainment and art.
This listing is permanently closed for submissions. This may mean one of several things:
- It was always planned to be a limited-time project, such as a one-time anthology, and the limited-time submission window has ended.
- The publisher has stated that they are permanently closed, or on hiatus with wording that makes it sound permanent.
- The publication website is down in a way that appears to be permanent, and we haven't been able to find a new website for them.
- The publication website is not down, but it appears to have been inactive for more than a year.
