Editorial Focus
Running Wild Press publishes great stories with great writing that don’t fit neatly in a box. RIZE Press publishes great genre stories written by those from underrepresented groups. Monstrous Books publishes great novels and graphic novels of dark fiction, science fiction, and fantasy.
Tips From the Editor
We publish 15 to 20 titles per year, per house. If we aren’t interested, then you’ll receive a rejection letter. If we are interested, then you may not hear from us until we are ready to make an offer. In some cases that could be a year or longer. Please use standard submission guidelines (double spaced, Times New Roman, 12 pt font).
