Novellas
We are currently open to submissions of novella length fiction for stand-alone publication in digital form, with possible consideration for print publication.
Vagabondage Press accepts queries all year round for novella and novel length work and only accepts queries by email.
What We're Looking For:
We are currently seeking well-written literary fiction of 15,000 to 50,000 words that explores the human experience. We hope to provide a safe space for authors who've gone underappreciated because the industry has led them to believe that they don't fit a particular format. We hold no editorial bias in regards to stories for or about individuals of any race, creed, gender, sexual orientation, or planet of origin.
