Small Wonders Magazine Is Open To Submissions/ How To Submit (Payment: $0.10/word - $60/poetry)

Small Wonders Magazine is currently open for original or reprint flash fiction and original poetry. This is a great opportunity for short story and poetry writers that want to publish their works in a reputable magazine and also earn some money in the process.

Submission Guidelines For Small Wonders Magazine

They accept flash fiction of 1,000 words or fewer. They are a little more lenient on word count for reprints than originals but their limit there is 1,100 words.
They are looking for speculative fiction with elements not of this world. These elements include fantasy, science fiction, horror.
Their very favorite stories are those that do not rely on a twist or “gotcha” ending. They love stories with big feelings, and do not necessarily mind set pieces with very little plot.
For poetry, they are primarily looking for narrative poems. That is, poems that tell a story, either directly or through strong implication.
They do not mind form poetry, but their favorite poems tend not to rely heavily on rhyme. They welcome poems over 50 lines.
Playful language and big feelings are both appreciated. However, they are not looking for reprint poetry at this time.
For your flash fiction, please submit a .docx or .rtf file per the Modern Manuscript Format: double-spaced; 12pt Times New Roman or other serif-type font (not Courier); 1″ margins; black font on an unadorned, white background.
You do not need to include your mailing address or phone number on the cover.
Include a cover letter with the length of your story, your publishing history (if you have one—it is fine if you do not!), and any other relevant information.
If your story relies heavily on formatting or visual elements, please include that information in your cover letter.
You may submit stories you are currently submitting elsewhere (simultaneous submission).
You may submit at most one original story and one reprint at a time (multiple submissions).
If your stories are rejected, please wait seven days before submitting new stories.
