Medusa Tales
Description
At Medusa Tales, we seek speculative stories (fantasy, sci-fi, and horror) of human transformation and immobilization. As our name suggests, this includes fantasy stories about Medusa turning victims to stone. Or a sci-fi tale about a laser weapon that converts its targets into mannequins. From stasis pods gone wrong to steampunk carbon freezing, the only limit is your imagination, so unleash it!
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.
