Mirk is a new magazine of fantasy fiction. We will publish two issues of short stories per year, in summer and winter. Four stories will be selected from our themed contest and the rest from general submissions. 

 

Our website will also be updated regularly with book reviews and features.​

 

General submissions are free all year round. The themed contest has a £5 entry fee and the prompt is announced three months before the next publication. Winners receive £100, publication, and a published comment about why the story won. 

​

Our definition of fantasy is broad, encompassing all sub-genres of fantasy, but we do have a particular interest in epic or high fantasy.
