We welcome your comments and suggestions, as well as submissions that meet the following criteria:

We are currently looking for:

• Character-driven stories
• Well-written and researched genre fiction (specifically, speculative fiction and mystery)
• Completed works
• No gratuitous sex or violence

We are NOT looking for:

• “Literary” fiction
• Plot-driven stories
• Unfinished work
• Fanfiction of any sort
• Any sort of work that you do not own wholly or are not licensed for
• Works that are excessively violent, sexual, homophobic, misogynistic, or bigoted

Feel free to submit novels that you feel meet our requirements to mailto:contact@oldsins.com Please bear in mind that we are very small and will get to your work when we can.

You are much more likely to be published by us after you have submitted to one of our anthologies, although we will print good work from new authors and acceptance into any given anthology doesn’t imply any further acceptance.
