Here’s my advice- Listen to a few stories first.

There’s something specific we are looking for here- that weird idea you have, that hilarious or disturbing scenario you’ve been brooding over.

What we want:

Flash Fiction up to or around 2,000 words.

We generally Accept fantasy/sci-fi/horror stories that are humorous , bizarre, gross or disturbing.  Really dark, heavy pieces that have lots of disturbing images or language stand less of a chance of being accepted.

Please include word count and bio information along with your story- plain or rich text - in the body of the email.

We currently offer 1.5 cents per word for stories 500-2000 words.  In some special cases we will accept stories longer than 2000 words.  It’s a very laid back system- we like to work with our authors a bit if necessary to make submissions work better in audio format.

Drabble stories (100 words) are published on a pro bono basis at this point.

Drabblecast holds no rights to your work- we won’t change it without your permission or sell it.

Reprints rock.

Send one story at a time please.

That’s about it- email stories or questions to drabblecast@yahoo.com
