Short fiction for our online magazine
Urban Pigs Press is now open for submissions in short fiction.
Mark Burrow is running this one and the topic of choice is ‘Revolt’. Submissions should be between 800 and 2,000 words only.
Please email Mark at Urbanpigspress@outlook.com with the title Revolt and attach your prose submission as a Word doc.
Interpret Revolt in any way you choose.
The submission window is open from now until Sunday 25th January (noon GMT).
Feel free to add a short bio with your submission (no more than 100 words) and a mug shot is welcome but by no means essential.

We look forward to reading what you send!
