New Fairy Tales is a new online magazine dedicated to publishing new fairy tales.
We are looking for original fairy tales, in traditional short story format (max 2500 words) and in other formats such as poetry, flash fiction (max 250 words) and comic strip. We are also looking for illustrations that are inspired by fairy tales and the land of Faërie. Please note that although we welcome works inspired by traditional tales we are not looking for retellings. New Fairy Tales wants to promote the writing of a generation of new and original fairy tales.
Please send text either in the body of your e-mail or attach it as a Word document. Images should be submitted as jpegs. We want as wide an age group as possible to be able to enjoy our magazine so please bear this in mind when submitting work. Copyright remains at all times with the author/illustrator and we ask our readers to respect this. Unfortunately we are not able to offer payment for work published in the magazine as New Fairy Tales is free to download but we do ask readers to make a small donation to Derian House Children's Hospice to show their appreciation.
We will be publishing three issues a year, in October, February and June.
Our launch issue is due out on 29th October 2008.
The deadline for submissions for the first issue is 1st October 2008.
