Escape Pod is looking for submissions.

Escape Pod is always looking for quality fiction to feed our listeners. If you’re a writer with a speculative short story that you’d like to hear narrated by one of our very nearly talented performers, we’d like to see it. Probably.
What We Want

EP is a science fiction magazine. We’re very broad-minded in our vision of the genre’s scope; we follow Damon Knight’s definition, “Science fiction means what we point to when we say it.” We’re not going to pin ourselves down and say we’re only looking for space opera, or cyberpunk, or stories with rigorous scientific background. We want all of those, of course; but in a more general sense we want that which evokes a sense of wonder, or fun, or simply makes us think about our own world in a new way.

Escape Pod is not looking for horror or fantasy. Please send horror stories to our sister podcast, Pseudopod, edited by Ben Philips; and send fantasy stories to our other sister podcast, PodCastle, edited by Rachel Swirsky. We don’t share our slushpiles, so if you send to one market and we feel it’s appropriate for another, we’ll simply ask you to resubmit over there. No hard feelings if that happens.

We’re primarily interested in two lengths of fiction, which we’ve dubbed (somewhat arbitrarily) “short fiction” and “flash fiction.”
