Awards are, of course, subjective, but they tell us that the work we do is seen and appreciated by the community that we are a part of. They are an important reminder that a space such as this holds meaning and value. So, thank you.
Strange Horizons will be open to fiction submissions on October 1st, 2024, at 7 a.m. UTC! To keep our response times manageable and submission windows more frequent, there will be a 1,000 story cap on submissions.
Strange Horizons is on the hunt for new volunteer first readers to join our fiction team.
Our first readers read some of the incoming fiction submissions and decide whether to pass them along to the fiction editors. We are therefore looking for people who like what Strange Horizons publishes.
For twenty-three years, Strange Horizons has brought you challenging, beautiful work from new and diverse voices. It is the community’s zine, and always will be. Let’s shine together for another year. Help us by donating today.
We are very happy to welcome Dante Luiz as a new fiction editor on the team! Dante is a Ignyte Award winning author, and has been with Strange Horizons working as an Art Director for the past several years. We’re stoked to bring him on to the fiction side and have him bring his wonderful insight and skill to the fiction team.
Strange Horizons is looking to add an additional social media editor and accessibility editor to our editorial collective. These roles will entail working in tandem with our existing social media and accessibility editors.
We wish all our readers a 2024 that brings justice and peace a little bit closer, and look forward to our shared task of finding the words that are meet for that task.
