They may be as explicit as you like, but should have some redeeming literary value (whatever you take that to mean).QM seeks characters out of the mainstream: punks, out-casts, skaters, urban anarchists and secretly rebellious farmboys. Whether you draw inspiration from Bill Burroughs or are a latter-day Lovecraft in creepy crawly tentacular stimulation, all genres are welcome.Previously published material considered on a case-by-case basis depending on original exposure.Please indicate place and date of previous publication in email.Stories should be no longer than 7,000 words.

Occultural Writers Sought

Sunday, September 16th, 2007

Rebel Satori Press is seeking inspired new magical work.

Are you a latter-day Prometheus bringing unknown wisdom from terra incognita, the hidden land? Or are you a metaphysical archeologist uncovering the forbidden knowledge of the Elder Gods?

We’re looking for book-length works that are innovative, provocative, uninhibited and transgressive. Topics we are seeking are diverse as post-modern occulture, traditional Witchcraft, and experimental magical theory. We want works that introduce new material to the field (or a wider audience). Material should also be well written and presented.

Esoteric works drawn forth from the liminal reaches or dredged up from the underworld are not only welcomed but are aggressively encouraged.

Previously unpublished manuscripts only. Material that has been previously self-released or new editions of long out-of-print classics may be considered.

Deadline for Submissions: Open

Email submission queries to publisher[at symbol]rebelsatori.com.
