WRITER'S GUIDELINES 2009Samsara, The Magazine of Suffering, P.O. Box 467, Ashburn, VA 20146-0467.
Accepts both poetry and fiction submissions. Poetry accepted up to two typed pages and fiction between 500 - 5K words (query for longer). If possible, stories should be submitted in both hardcopy and electronic WordPerfect 5.x or 6.x format. All submissions should include the theme of suffering; however, there can be a positive resolution at the conclusion of the piece. All genres are accepted. Simultaneous submissions ok if noted as such. Cover letters are appreciated. FNASR only and pays in one contributor's copy. Back issues are available for $4.50, and the recent Issue #12 is available for $5.50. Please make checks payable to R. DAVID FULCHER.
TIPS TO WRITERS/POETS: Bear in mind that Samsara accepts mainstream, science fiction, fantasy, and horror that has suffering as its theme. All of the above types of stories/poetry have been published in Samsara. Make sure you give me honesty, intensity, and fresh imagery.
You may wish to query first before sending your manuscript due to the fact that Samsara has a somewhat irregular reading schedule. Electronic queries are okay, but I do not accept electronic submissions at this time.
