Podcastle is calling submissions. They publish fantasy fiction stories in their podcast. This means your story will be read out loud and distributed across the world.

They pay $.06 cents a word, up to 6,000 words. That works out to a maximum of $360.

They pay a flat rate of $100 for reprints.

According to their website:

“PodCastle is looking for fantasy stories. We’re open to all the sub-genres of fantasy, from magical realism to urban fantasy to slipstream to high fantasy, and everything in between. Fantastical or non-real content should be meaningful to the story.

We are an audio magazine. Our audience can’t skim past the boring parts. Ideally, fiction should have strong pacing, well-defined characters, engaging dialogue, clear action, and still be beautiful. Above all, we’re looking for stories that are fun to listen to. Humor is encouraged.”

They accept submissions from people of all backgrounds.
