Gaslamp Pulp operates as a genre-focused imprint under Nat 1 Publishing, with a stated interest in science fiction and fantasy at book length. The call is for complete works of 20,000 words or more—the novella and novel range—rather than short fiction. Submissions are read blind, a practice that asks the writer to present the manuscript on its own terms, without the framing of biography, publication history, or reputation. The press accepts simultaneous submissions and does not charge a reading fee, which places the emphasis on the work itself rather than on access or exclusivity. The guidelines are explicit about what the press will not consider: work that glorifies sexism, racism, ageism, ableism, or other forms of discrimination; AI-generated content; fan fiction or any material that infringes on existing copyright; and previously published work, though personal blogs, websites, and Reddit are treated as acceptable prior appearances. Writers who have had a book rejected by Nat 1 Publishing are asked not to resubmit that same work. These parameters define a curatorial stance that is at once open to genre pleasure and firm about originality and ethical responsibility. Because the reading is blind, the manuscript must carry no identifying information, including in the file name. This is not a formality but a condition of fair consideration: the editors have chosen to encounter the work without the signals that usually accompany a submission. For the writer, the task is therefore to make the first pages do the work of introduction—voice, world, and narrative pressure—without relying on a cover letter or credits to establish authority. The press is looking for sustained science fiction and fantasy, and the length requirement signals a commitment to developed narrative rather than fragments or proposals.
