"A story is a complete dramatic action..." ~ Flannery O'Connor

All manuscripts MUST contain a word count. Please include a two page synopsis and one sentence tag line along with word count at the beginning of the submission.

We're looking for characters, plot, stories, etc. Keep us engaged by maintaining focus and forward momentum. We want voice, experimental, you name it. We'll consider most genres and cross-genres so long as it has deep literary undertones to it. Please no romance or erotica.
