STORIES

Spacesuits and Sixguns is a magazine of contemporary pulp fiction - simple, straightforward storytelling with an emphasis on action. We're not looking for Lovecraft or Howard pastiches, or stories set in the 1930's. Read a dozen pulp fiction stories, soak it all up, then ask yourself: what if this happened in my hometown today? Write close to home, write about what you love, and follow Elmore Leonard's maxim: leave out the parts people skip. All genres accepted - detective, horror, mystery, adventure, SF, sword and sorcery (youre going to really have to work hard to get me to accept sword and sorcery, but try me). I love them all. Give me about 4000 words. Shorter is fine. We're flexible. If it's longer and it's good, no problem. Rule number one - be fun!
Fiction pays 3 cents a word to a maximum of $100.
