OD Ekpeki Presents
OD Ekpeki Presents is accepting submissions of fiction, poetry, essays, articles and reviews for a speculative fiction anthology, The Passage to Caribbean Pantheology, writes Gary Dalkin.
Submissions will be considered by Caribbean people or anyone with ancestral or migratory ties to the region. Exploring the space between myth and legend, the fantastical and the speculative, the supernatural and the real, the editorial team of Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki, Tonya Liburd, E.G. Condé and Fabrice Guerrier are looking for stories that defy genre boundaries – fantasy, magical realism, surreal, the weird, speculative, and science fiction – including works that should engage with the diverse spiritual traditions of the region or its many diasporas.
No racist submissions or material generated using artificial intelligence. Payment is 8 cents US per word up to 1,000 words. 1 cent thereafter for longer submissions. $50 flat rate for poems, essays, articles and reviews for exclusive world rights for one year in English, French and Spanish. Email your submissions to: caribbeanpantheology@gmail.com. Closing date, 11 February 2024.
