Astrolabe - Poetry (Fiction) (Nonfiction)



Description
Note: this publication may close early for submissions if they reach a submission quota; these early closures will not be tracked in this listing.

Note: one submission per reading period.

Note: this publication asks for First North American Serial Rights (FNASR), but they publish online, which implies World rights.

At Astrolabe, we’re looking for work about how we seek out, discover, and grasp onto connection. Into the woods. Across a line. Beneath the ocean. Along a seam. Into the branches of an alternate present or the crevasse of an alternate future. Across the rifts between one another.

And then, once we find one other, the myths we make.

We’re excited to see as many interpretations of this broad theme as there are stars in the night sky.

We’re open to work of all genres, with a particular fondness for anything that moves beyond realism in form or content or spirit.
