Please email us at perytonpublishing@boxbe.com
or contact us through the forum
with all concerns. Feel free to contact us with ideas, proposals, or
anything else that sounds cool. If you have never emailed us before,
you may be asked to verify that you're a human being and not a spam-bot
by transcribing a text code. Be assured that you are not signing up for
anything by doing this... unless you really are a spam-bot, in which
case you will owe us a lot of money.
Submission Guidelines
Fiction
We're occasionally looking for weird fiction from
the future to the ancient past, as well as any dreamings in between.
Short stories to novellas enjoyed. See the forum for specifics. Submission samples should be cut and
pasted into emails as plain text, not attached as files. Exact rates
depend on the project, but usually we pay 1/4 cent per word for first
rights.
Visual Art
We are primarily interested in buying full rights
to original artwork. Prices are negotiable; query first. Don't send us
images via email without prior approval.
- We work out financial arrangements via email,
but
like to discuss projects on a private bulletin board, which is accessed
through an account on our public bulletin
board.
This way we can keep multiple conversations with different contributors
in the same topic going on, and we all can reference each other's
thoughts or sketches with ease. Almost a third of the artists we work
with prefer email, so we understand if you don't want to do the
BBS/forum thing.
- While we do insist on full ownership of commissioned
art, we're willing to give you an unlimited
license to do as you will with your pictures. This license begins as
soon as the work for which we commissioned the art has been published,
and it means you can still put your pictures on prints, t-shirts, your
web page, or whatever, as long as it's clear that Peryton Publishing remains the official copyright holder.
- Artists can send near-completed drafts of
commissioned works and expect payment before completion, if we like the
piece.
- Artists can order up to ten copies of the work for which their art was commissioned at cost plus postage.
