Saros Speculative Fiction
Description
We are happy to see science fiction from all subgenres, though we do appreciate a touch of the bizarre. Our preference is for personal stories that are weird, dark, thoughtful, mythic, or wondrous. Blended genres and bleak stories are welcome and encouraged!
We love well-realized settings, strong narrative voices, and a focus on character.
