Call for Nonfiction Essays on Theme of Dwelling: Speculative Nonfiction

Issue #4: Dwelling

Reading Period: July 15, 2020 – September 15, 2020

We are curious about your dwellings, both in physical space and in speculative space. (Is there a difference?) We are curious about your abodes, your forests, your deserts, your virtual landscapes, your hidden depths, your lingerings, your ponderings, your obsessions. How do we dwell with others, with silence, with discomfort, with new ideas, with change, with ourselves? The editors humbly seek your views.

Although we do not have a word limit, we tend to publish essays under 2500 words.

Note: Speculative Nonfiction donated all submission fees collected from issue #3 to the NAACP and The Movement for Black Lives. For the remainder of 2020, we will waive the submission fee for any writer who makes a financial contribution to one of these organizations working for racial justice.

Please send donation receipts to:

speculativenonfictionATgmailDOTcom (Change AT to @ and DOT to . )

If, for reasons of financial hardship, you are unable to pay the $3 submission fee, please contact us directly to request a fee waiver.

We will be accepting submissions during the reading period only through Submittable.
