Recompose is to be a ‘journal of interstitial short works’ of both prose and poetry. What this means is flash fiction and poetry that walk the line between one of the ‘speculative’ genres – science fiction, fantasy, and horror – and the literary genre.
The project is to be published by Alliteration Ink and edited by the owner of this small press, Steven Saus. Recompose has been fully funded through a Kickstarter and will pay professional rates of 25¢ per line for poetry up to 50 lines and 6¢ a word for prose up to 1,000 words.
All submissions must include both a discernible integral speculative element and a literary element. Be cautious with the use of graphic sex or sexual assault and avoid gratuitous use of either.
