We are CLOSED to submissions and pitches. Apocalypse Party is currently seeking novels, novellas, and short story collections. We are specifically interested in horror, transgressive, and literary fiction. We are on the lookout for challenging books that push boundaries and defy convention. We value mood, atmosphere, and altered states of perception as much as we value story. We like stories with the ethereal quality of memory filtered through a psychedelic kaleidoscope. We want profoundly bleak narratives that are cognitively demanding, often ambiguous, and emotionally poignant. Surprise us. Use your unique voice to draw us into your distinctive linguistic landscape. Most of all, we want books that take risks. Show us something we've never seen before. You can reach us by email at [email protected] In the body of your email, please include a cover letter with a short summary of your manuscript or pitch. Please attach your manuscript as a word document .doc or .docx. Please do not send multiple manuscripts at once. Simultaneous submissions are cool. Due to time limitations, we will only respond to submissions we are interested in publishing. If you do not hear back within four months, then the manuscript has not been accepted. What we pay: Our royalty agreement for both print and ebook is 50% of net revenue. By publishing with Apocalypse Party, you grant us the right to publish and distribute your work worldwide in paperback and ebook. All other rights are retained by the author. |
