Out of Character, a new magazine of fantasy and science fiction work for the gaming community, is looking for submissions for our premiere issue, due in March.

Our mission is to publish engaging, lively stories of interest to gamers that stand on their own as quality writing. Any genre that has been used in a MU* is welcome, although we will not take stories that draw on copyrighted material.

Fiction: Submissions should be under 2500 words. Flash fiction is welcome, as are multiple or simultaneous submissions. We are willing to look at reprints.

Nonfiction: Interviews of interest to our readers, as well as opinion pieces dealing with aspects of text gaming, are welcome. Length should be under 2500 words.

Artwork: we are looking for cover art as well as smaller black and white pieces or photographs to use within the zine. Art should be submitted as JPEG files.  Cartoonists are encouraged to send samples.

We accept e-mail submissions as either an attachment in .rtf format or in the body of the e-mail. Submissions should be sent to PLEASE make sure you have your e-mail address at the top of the manuscript. The subject line should read either FICTION SUBMISSION or ART SUBMISSION, followed by the name of your piece.

Currently we are not able to pay; we hope to change this in future issues.  We will provide authors with a banner ad, which can be used to advertise a MUD, an electronic publication, or the commodity or cause of their choice.
