Checks or money orders made out to 'Flesh and Blood' will be returned. Although we are still open to fiction, publication wait could be at least 10-12 months. Anything over this will be returned unread. The writing and writing style should be polished and clean. Journal-entry stories, stories told in the first person, stories about revenge, cannibalism, all have a scant chance at being considered.
Atmosphere is also a big plus.
Same guidelines for fiction apply for poetry submissions. Send no more than 5 poems at a time. The poem should not exceed any more than two typed pages. Rhyming poems, poems about long-lost loves, love in general, etc. will not be favored. We have columnists and artists for the time being.
