Revelation is interested in publishing any creative work — short stories, one-act plays, illustrations, sequential art —  that has been inspired by or is somehow connected to any conception of the end of the world. That doomsday connection may be tenuous, implied, or overwhelming. Submissions may be representative of any genre — drama, comedy, mystery, romance, horror, fantasy, science fiction, creative nonfiction — provided there is a relevant and creative apocalyptic element apparent in the piece. As with most publications, the best means of determining what kind of work gets placed in the magazine is to familiarize yourself with the content of past issues.

Apocalyptic content need not be hopelessly dark and sketches that are overwhelmingly dour without the benefit of an evident, redeeming thematic purpose will not be placed in the magazine. The horror of a particularly creative doomsday will not carry a story by itself; Revelation's readers value plot and character development above all else.

Please note that Revelation is not currently seeking essay or poetry submissions.

Revelation submissions should be made electronically, via e-mail, in Word format.  Stories, plays, or essays should not exceed 8,000 words. Multiple and simultaneous submissions are acceptable. Those whose works are accepted for publication will receive a contributor's copy of the magazine and the satisfaction of having contributed to the public's apocalyptic paranoia. Additionally, the magazine's fiction is collected in an annual print anthology from Fourth Horseman Press. Questions regarding content or publication should be directed to the address below.
