September Open Submissions

World Weaver Press is accepting queries for fantasy, paranormal, and science fiction novels, novellas, and single-author collections during the month of September. This is the last open-reading period for 2015. Find details about querying on our submissions page. 

Below, our editors who are seeking new projects have given a few thoughts about what they'd most like to find in the slush pile. While these insights are not to be ignored, the best way to get a sense of the sort of fiction we're interested in publishing is to read some of our already published works.

This month, Assistant Editor Laura Harvey notes:

Things I'd like to see: I'm hoping to find richly imagined story worlds, intriguing creatures, and plucky champions. Bonus points if your protagonist takes out a pack of slavering wolves slain with nothing more than a bendy straw and some chewing gum. 

Assistant Editor Sarena Ulibarri says:

I am primarily looking for fun, futuristic science fiction. Aliens are awesome, but other science fiction elements are welcome as well. I would love to see fleshed-out characters that represent the full spectrum of human experience, and worldbuilding (Earth or otherwise) that shows a balance between technology and nature.
