Seeking submissions for an original writing anthology zine about the dark side of nostalgia! Deadline 27/09.
Full FAQ available here.
Submit your work here.
Any type of nostalgia is welcome. Maybe it involves the internet. Maybe it’s about a book, a game, a video tape. Maybe it’s about your childhood friends and the town you grew up in and the family you no longer speak to. Maybe it’s how things felt before that one big world event, and maybe it’s all a locked room regardless of how soft the carpet feels against your cheek. Think of this as speculative fiction for people who are too tired to speculate.
One writer (and two runners up) will also be awarded with a small cash prize. More info on this in the FAQ.
Deadline extended until October 18th!

Drawn Through the Telephone - a new original concept zine - will be a free, digital anthology, containing both art and writing.
Contributors will submit a vague description of a piece of media they like, and this pitch will then be passed on to a different contributor to create an original work - without knowing what story inspired it. For example: Stardew Valley could be submitted as 'main character moves to old family home, uncovers supernatural secrets and destroys local business'. A creator could turn this into an unwilling vampire hunter overturning the restaurant a coven uses as a front business to feed off locals.
