The mission for submission, should you choose to accept it, is to think of three possible stories inspired by our cover image, discard the first two and write the third (in this way, we can subtract normal and get deviation).

Author Guidelines:

The maximum length for submissions is 6000 words with no minimum length. No more than one submission per author. Please list your first two ideas on the top of your manuscript after your byline so that we can track the deviations, and include a short introduction to your piece.
