Our Submission Guidelines
Except for our Pseudoperiodicals and Witchcraft in Your Lips (see below), Lethe Press is currently closed to unsolicited submissions from authors we have not previously worked with. We will resume an open reading period in January of 2025.
Before submitting a story to us, please reach out to query with a synopsis of your manuscript, a bio, and why you think Lethe is a good home for your work. Please have the email subject be Lethe Submission: Your Title.
We do not accept submissions that are also being considered by other publishers. If we read this in your submission email, our answer is a firm no. We are a small press and time is a precious commodity.

Now accepting submissions for...
A collection of lesbian-themed folk magic and witchcraft tentatively titled Witchcraft in Your Lips. For this book we're seeking 3-4 novellas. Submissions should be between 20-30 thousand words in length. We are not interested in erotica or young adult stories for this book. Same-sex relationships should be presented as positive, as usage of folk magic. By this, we mean no self-loathing lesbians or witches (they can face external prejudices, of course). Open for submissions until February 1, 2025.
Submissions should be sent to [email protected] with the subject line WIYL Submission. Because we are a small press, our response time is quite slow; please do not query us about your submission until October, when we will close for submission.
Payment for each story will be 750 dollars and five copies of the print edition.
