Rat 'n' Rooster Journal of Speculative Fiction and Poetry

Please read the guidelines for either Speculative Fiction or Poetry.

Please note: We have a $4 reading fee. This allows us to maintain the wheels, cogs and levers of running a journal, i.e., website hosting, proofreading, editing and most importantly, pay writers!

Simultaneous submissions are acceptable. However, if your story or poem is accepted elsewhere, please withdraw your submission or let us know immediately.

We pay upon acceptance, $55 per story and $15 per poem.
