Fiction: Horror, dark mystery, and suspense short stories up to 5,000 words. Query for longer material. Cemetery Dance Magazine wants tales that are powerful and emotional—creepy, chilling, disturbing, and moody. Suspense/mystery/crime tales with a horror element are always welcome. Both supernatural and psychological stories are fine. Most common reasons for rejection are: lack of power, lack of originality, slow pacing, poor writing, boring themes.

Response time currently averages 2 to 4 months, although it can take longer if your story gets held for a second or third read. Simultaneous submissions are okay, if noted in cover letter. Let editors know immediately if your story sells elsewhere. Please do not send multiple submissions—please only send one story at a time and do not send your next submission until Editors have replied to the first.

Payment is professional rates, minimum of five cents per word, plus two contributor copies. Payable within 30 days of publication. Up to 5,000 words; maximum payment of $250.

Boys' Quest is a bimonthly magazine containing action-packed stories and cartoons, awesome building projects, hilarious jokes and riddles, creative cooking and collecting columns, intriguing science experiments, problem solving math puzzlers, fantastic computer columns, plus a pen pal club, kids' corner, contests, and much more. There is a theme for each issue and these themes are not repeated.

Boys' Quest is a magazine created for boys from 6 to 13 years, with youngsters 8, 9, and 10 the specific target age. Their point of view is that every young boy deserves the right to be a young boy for a number of years before he becomes a young adult. As a result, Boys' Quest looks for articles, fiction, non-fiction, and poetry that deal with timeless topics, such as pets, nature, hobbies, science, games, sports, careers, simple cooking, and anything else likely to interest a 10-year-old boy.

Looking for lively writing, most of it from a 10-year-old boy¹s point of view, with the boy or boys directly involved in an activity that is both wholesome and unusual. Boys' Quest needs non-fiction with photos and fiction stories, as well as puzzles, poems, cooking, carpentry projects, jokes, and riddles.

Flesh & Blood is a multi award-winning dark fantasy fiction magazine published quarterly. It is a 50+ page magazine featuring a variety of the strange and offbeat behind its full color cover.

Flesh & Blood will look at fiction up to 5,000 words.Flesh & Blood is no longer considering reprints. Stories must possess a strong sense/feel of the strange, offbeat, darkly fantastic, unnatural, and/or surreal. Will not consider stories without at least one or more of these elements. Fiction that deals with serial killers, stereotypical plots (zombies, vampires, cats, etc), revenge, blatant gore, and sex will not be the proper match for F&B magazine. Contrary to the magazine's title, Flesh & Blood would rather steer clear of the "flesh" and "blood" in fiction and place a bigger emphasis on the subtle and strange. Nevermind sending a proposal/synopsis. Instead, send the complete manuscript with mention of your background (if any) in the cover letter.

Will only consider UP TO four submissions per author per year. Payment: $.02-$.05 cents/word on publication

Response time: 2-3 months, but averaging 1-2 weeks at present.

Each issue of Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine is packed with new mystery short stories — at least seven, varying in length from short-shorts to novellas — and one "Mystery Classic" — an outstanding tale from the genre's past.

Because this is a mystery magazine, the stories they buy must fall into that genre in some sense or another. Editors are interested in nearly every kind of mystery: stories of detection of the classic kind, police procedurals, private eye tales, suspense, courtroom dramas, stories of espionage, and so on. They ask only that the story be about a crime (or the threat or fear of one). Magazine sometimes accepts ghost stories or supernatural tales, but those also should involve a crime.

Prefers that stories not be longer than 12,000 words; most of the stories in the magazine are considerably shorter than that. They should, of course, be well written. Magazine is looking for stories that have not been previously published elsewhere, and among them for those that are fresh, well told, and absorbing. They should be entirely fiction: please do not send stories based on actual crimes, for instance, or other real-life events.

Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine welcomes submissions from both new and established writers. EQMM publishes every kind of mystery short story: the psychological suspense tale, the deductive puzzle, the private eye case-the gamut of crime and detection from the realistic (including the policeman's lot and stories of police procedure) to the more imaginative (including "locked rooms" and "impossible crimes"). EQMM needs hard-boiled stories as well as "cozies," but is not interested in explicit sex or violence. Does not want true detective or crime stories, only fiction.

EQMM is especially happy to review first stories by authors who have never before published fiction professionally. First-story submissions should be addressed to EQMM's Department of First Stories.

EQMM uses stories of almost every length. 2,500-8,000 words is the preferred range, but occasionally uses stories of up to 12,000 words and features one or two short novels (up to 20,000 words) each year, although these spaces are usually reserved for established writers. Shorter stories are also considered, including minute mysteries of as little as 250 words. Rates for original stories are from 5 to 8 ¢ a word, sometimes higher for established authors. EQMM does not accept stories previously published in the United States.

Response time is up to three months.
