Before you hit that send button, please look to see if your question is answered below. We love hearing from our readers and potential writers, but a lot of the same questions are asked repeatedly. Asking one of these questions via our contact form will lead to your email being deleted unread.

Do you accept novel/novella/anthology/collection book submissions or queries?

We do not. We’re strictly an online digital short fiction zine.

Will you review my book?

We are currently not doing book reviews. Sorry!

My story was published only on my website. Can I still submit it to Apex Magazine?

If your story was publicly available, then you no longer own first rights. Therefore, no, we won’t take it on submissions. We will consider stories published in non-literary paywalls (such as Patreon) or password locked posts.
