Welcome to Comets and Criminals.

Issue #2 will be appearing on the website over the course of Jan-Mar 2012. For the latest stories released, check out the Released This Week page.

You can purchase the full issue from our store in three formats (.mobi, .epub and .pdf) for $2.99 (US). That’s a great price any day of the week. .mobi is the format for the Kindle, .epub is the format for Nook, Kobo, Sony Reader, iPad, iBooks, Adobe Digital and some other apps. If you don’t have an e-reader, then .pdf is the format for you.

Check out issue #1 here. All the content is available on the website, but if you want to read the entire issue on a comfortable reading device, or at your leisure, it’s also available from our shop in the three formats mentioned.

Our store is a PayPal store, but if you’re not a PayPal user, you can still purchase via credit card using PayPal’s secure payment facilities. We also have Kindle versions of issues #1 and #2 available via Amazon. Issue #1 is available (for .99c) here, and issue #2 here.

An .epub version of issue #2 is also available at Smashwords here, and Barnes and Noble, as well as other epub outlets.

Readers, if you haven’t already: bookmark us; follow us on Twitter; subscribe to our RSS feed; like us on Facebook; whatever it takes to make sure you don’t miss a single story or poem.

Writers, submission guidelines are available here. See what sort of fiction, poetry and art Comets and Criminals is after, how much we’re willing to pay, and how you can submit. Then send those stories and poems and illustrations in.

      Hi Barton

      Each submissions page (fiction, poetry, art) has the appropriate submissions address under the subheading, ‘Where to Submit.’

      Best

    I’d just like to check – are you still taking submissions? I was wondering what the final acceptance date for submissions would be if the release date has been moved up a quarter.

      Hi Susan

      We’re still open for subs. Once issue #1 is filled I’ll start reading for issue #2 immediately. Once issue #2 is filled we may close to subs for a bit, but if so an announcement will be made on the blog and the guidelines pages updated.

      Send that story in! :)

    Dear Sam,

    Would you consider a 7,500 word story with a maritime setting, straddling action/adventure/horror genres?

    Thank you,

    Daithi

Buy C&C #2



Donate to C&C (and its contributors)

Do you think a story, poem or illustration deserves extra monetary recognition? Then why not consider a donation? 60% of anything donated will go to the author, artist or poet you nominate. We keep 40% because, well, we'd like to think we deserve a little something for bringing the story, poem or illustration to your attention.

We'll also happily accept donations towards the running of the magazine.

Remember, when donating, that if you'd like 60% of your donation to go to a particular magazine contributor you'll need to let us know who they are. To do this, on the last step of donating, click on the plus next to 'Which contributor should this go to?' and type their name into the text box. If there's no name there, we'll assume you want the entire donation to go to us.

Thanks in advance for your generosity!
