About the magazine

Wyldblood Magazine is an online publication dedicated to speculative fiction, with a particular emphasis on fantasy, science fiction, and horror. Founded in 2020 by Mark and Karen Bilsborough, the magazine emerged from a desire to provide a platform for both emerging and established writers to share imaginative stories that might not find a home in more traditional venues. Its core mission is to champion bold, character-driven narratives that explore the strange and the wondrous, without sacrificing literary quality. The magazine publishes quarterly issues and maintains a regular online presence, fostering a community of readers and writers who appreciate genre fiction with a fresh voice.

Submitting your work

Reading periodVaries

Writers should familiarize themselves with the magazine's aesthetic by reading at least one issue before submitting. Wyldblood seeks stories up to 7,500 words, with a preference for strong openings and well-developed characters. Simultaneous submissions are accepted, but please notify promptly if your story is accepted elsewhere. Use standard manuscript formatting and include a brief cover letter with your submission. Response times vary, but the magazine aims to reply within 4-6 weeks. Payment is competitive for a small press, and contributors receive a digital copy of the issue.
