What we publish
We look for fiction of exactly one hundred words — not ninety-nine, not one hundred and one. The constraint is the point. Inside it, we want stories with real weight: a voice, a turn, a moment that lingers.
Every piece that comes in is opened and read. Please read the submission terms before sending.
