“Singularity is a quarterly publication, interested in exploring the realms of genre fiction.  We want to create a magazine that is filled with gems of stories, served straight from the writer’s brain, into your hands.  Nuggets of other worlds and possibilities that make our readers smile, cry, and look over their shoulder (though not necessarily at the same time.)”

“At Singularity, we want to see the best you have to offer.  We are interested in genre fiction of the highest standard.  We are looking for stories that take in Horror, Fantasy, Science Fiction, or a mixture of the three.  We aren’t that concerned with pigeonholing stuff, so if you have something that doesn’t strictly fall into any of the above categories, but you think might interest us, send it in anyway.  Bear in mind the amount of nice vampire/malevolent ghost/hungry werewolf/barbarian hero/marauding dragon type stories there are out there.  We want to see fresh stuff.  That’s not to say you can’t include these types of characters, but we’d like to see something interesting done with/to/at them.

The ideal size of piece we want is between three and ten thousand words.  We might also be interested in serialising novellas or novels, but not epic 100k space operas I’m afraid.

Above all, we want good, intelligently written escapism.”

Pay: We are offering a token payment of £10 for short stories, along with a free copy of the mag.  For novellas etc, we will negotiate.
