Novel, Short Story Collection, and Novella

We will be open for submissions of these longer works from individual authors beginning October 1, 2011. Please use the automated form below to submit your work. We are looking for speculative fiction, particularly science fiction (hard, soft, near-future, etc), magic realism, urban fantasy, and apocalypse fiction. We rarely like sword and sorcery type fantasy, aren’t interested in “slasher” type horror, don’t care for religious themes (which includes demons/the devil), and will not accept poetry of any kind. Please do not send us a romance novel, no matter what setting it is in, as that just wastes your time and ours. Seeking complete (finished, edited) manuscripts of up to 120,000 words. However, step one is to submit a query to us. If interested, we will reply with a request for a synopsis and the first three chapters.

If you are submitting a collection of previously published material, you must have recovered all rights to those stories BEFORE submitting to us. Do not submit a collection which contains stories still under copyright to another publisher.

Remember: if you send us poor work now, we will remember you later. Send only your best work.

Please send all questions to submissions@daganbooks.com
