I’m not sure whether I’m getting pickier about which deadlines I’ll list here, or whether there was just a dearth of deadlines this month, but…yeah. Slim pickings in the month of October. Fortunately, many of the deadlines from previous months are still outstanding, so be sure to click on “Upcoming Deadlines” in the sidebar and find something to which you want to submit.

Horror World Anthology of Short Fiction – Volume 1 – October 31

’13’ Anthology – November 2

Wastelands 2 (reprints only) – January 1, 2013

Crowded Magazine – ongoing (see varying submission dates)

Plasma Frequency Magazine – ongoing

These deadlines are, as always, Submitter Beware, because I can’t vouch for any of these publishers. This is basically just a place for me to deposit deadlines to which I would like to submit work, so all the markets are paying (usually at least $.01 a word, or royalties) and accept electronic submissions. They’re all genre markets of some kind (horror, science fiction, steampunk, fantasy).

Please be sure to check Duotrope Digest, Ralan, and Dark Markets for more publications looking for submissions. This list is by no means exhaustive. Oh, and don’t forget to check posts from previous months (they’re all categorized under “Upcoming Deadlines”) for publications that are still open.

If you’re an editor or publisher and you’d like me to feature your deadline here, you can email me at sarah.hans at gmail dot com with the details.

Happy Submitting!
