Sheer Speculation Press is looking for short stories for its two publications Staffs & Starships and Loki's Journal. Here are the general guidelines for each:

Staffs & Starships

Length - We're looking for shorter fiction. 3,500 words is a good number, but we'll accept anything up to 4,000 words if it catches our eye. If you really think you have a great story that's over that, send a query to the editor, and we'll have a look at it (nothing over 6,000 words, though, please).

Staffs & Starships Magazine is focused on literary quality speculative fiction. We hope to gather together pieces that raise a question - pieces that hark back to an era when speculative fiction really meant speculating or postulating on some aspect of the world around them in a way that made the reader question themselves.

Loki's Journal

Length - We are looking for stories between 2,500 and 3,000 words. Some stories slightly over the maximum might be accepted, but they must tell a truly spectacular story that compels us to print it.

Loki's Journal is looking for stories that fit outside the boundaries of the ordinary or the commonplace. Look at our site for our definitions of the four kinds of stories we're really interested in: Adult Fairy-tales, Dark Fantastic, Insolative, and Magic Realism.
