Upcoming Submissions Call

For

Queering Cthulhu

For far too long, Cthulhu Mythos protagonists have been straight men. No longer. We are looking for stories from LGBTQ+ points of views. We aren't necessarily looking for romance (we may revisit rom-coms in the future), but for cosmic horror viewed through a queer lens. Take any aspect of H.P. Lovecraft's Mythos and queer it. Show us something we've never seen before.

Submissions window: October 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026
Publication target: Summer 2028
