We've sent out all final responses for the Fungi and Flora anthology! Please query us if you haven't received a response yet.
If you received a rejection, please know that it wasn't personal. There were so many amazing, creative stories, and we wish we could've accepted more.

31/01/2024

At this point, we've read through all 350+ submissions to Flora and Fungi and sent out either rejections or hold notices while we make our final decisions. Again, we thank you all for your patience and for making our work so difficult!

06/01/2024

We're working through the 350+ stories we received. Thanks to everyone who trusted us with their stories. Whether it's your first or your thousandth submission, it's always an act of courage to send your writing out into the world!

We're going to send out another round of rejections this weekend. Please know that if we reject your story for this call, it's not because we didn't enjoy it or because it wasn't well-written. We'll probably only be able to accept around 5% of the submissions we received.

01/12/2023

Can't believe it's already December! TOMORROW (December 2nd) at midnight is the last day to submit! We can't wait to read your amazing stories!
