SUBMISSION GUIDLINES. 

​

Do you have an amazing story that centers characters of color? We'd love to hear from you. 

 

We are open to most fiction genres, but are especially looking for young adult, new adult fantasy, speculative fiction, and science fiction novels, written from a Black and Brown perspective: Meaning stories that center characters/communities of color and/or reflect/challenge real world prejudices toward, perceptions of, and experiences of people of color. 

​

We are interested in a wide variety of stories that fit within those parameters: dystopian adventures, coming of age stories, thrillers, Black and Brown love/joy, fantasy that explores racism and/or colonialism, Black/Brown girl magic, horror stories that center Black/Indigenous/Brown lore, etc.

​

We accept submissions from self-represented and agent-represented writers.
