We are now OPEN to flash fiction and short fiction submissions. Please review our guidelines before sending your fiction to us.
We are currently sorting through our previously-held submissions and hope to have the backlogged cleared soon. Thank you for your patience!
We've had a lot of submissions come in between the first day of June and the last day of July; this is outside our submission period and they will be deleted, unread. Please do not send us your stories outside the submissions period.
Thank you,
The Editors

It's a brand new decade (by some manners of counting) and Abyss&Apex is bigger and better than ever! Our poetry is frequently nominated for the prestigious Rhysling Award and sometimes wins; our fiction is always talked about and frequently award-nominated. Our editorials cover current issues in the genre and darn it, we're just fun!
Both Poetry and Fiction submissions are closed as of now, but get ready: Fiction Submissions for short and flash lengths opens on February 1, 2010; Poetry Submissions opens March 1, 2010.
By the way, we are SERIOUS when we say we delete submissions sent out of the submission period. Please check the submissions page before you hit that "submit" button!
