Deadline: June 30, 2021
Second Submission Window: Aug. 1--Oct. 15
- *You must be neurodivergent.
- **The work must be your own.

- Simultaneous submissions are okay, but please withdraw your submission if it is accepted elsewhere.
- Previously published work will be considered. Please include a note with your submission stating the name of original publication in which it appeared.

*Due
to diagnostic and research bias regarding race and gender, poor
healthcare access, and the fact that psychologists and researchers often
focus on children only, self-diagnosis is VALID.

There are no submission fees. We also do not charge readers for online content. This means we are terrible capitalists, or maybe it highlights how capitalism is in direct conflict with amplifying ALL voices.
Submission decisions will be made within four months, but we expect to respond much earlier in most cases. If you haven’t heard from us within 120 days, feel free to send us a nudge.
Contributors will be published online and in the print anthology scheduled for publication in December 2021. Contributors will receive a free copy of the Fat Coyote anthology plus payment.
All publication rights revert back to the author/artist upon the print publication’s release.
Email submissions to:
fat_coyote@outlook.com
The subject line should include category of submission. Include your name, mailing address, phone number, the titles of all works included in your submission, and a brief author/artist bio in the email.
