Submissions Call for Ecofiction Reprint Stories

Apex Book Company is seeking submissions for a reprint anthology, ECO24: The Year’s Best Speculative Ecofiction.

Stories must be complete reprints between 1,000 and 6,000 words, published during the 2024 calendar year. Content must be speculative and “focused on ecology, climate, the environment, conservation, the natural world, our relationship to animals and other non-human life, and related issues. A climate-crisis setting alone is not enough to qualify.”

Payment is $0.01 USD per word, along with a physical and ebook copy of the anthology.

The deadline to submit is March 17, 2025. Self-published and unpublished stories are not accepted. Multiple submissions are accepted.

For more details, see the full call for submissions.
