Frigg publishes flash fiction and longer short stories, creative nonfiction that is flash-length or longer, and poetry. Frigg will soon(ish) publish a special issue called The Insanity Issue. The submissions deadline for the Issue is early December (although we may give you more time if you need it). We are aiming to get the issue online in January 2027.
We are looking for works that are in some way relevant to this theme, which I realize is wide-ranging. The word (or concept) of "insanity" has many connotations. Deeply personal, or perhaps outside of yourself: household, neighborhood, workplace, local community, an entire nation (I now believe that a country can be catagorized as being insane), or international. Galactic. Multi-galactic. (Conversely, microscopic. Genes inside cells can be insane.) Can include outer space, and whatever places the dead occupy. Or tell us about your psychotic cockatoo. Don't forget about plants, foliage, mud, trees, flowers. (I have a friend who is terrified of sunflowers, which I get.) Anything natural or unnatural or supernatural, or all three. This subject is all-encompassing.
You can submit one, two, or three poems in one file, and we might choose one, two, or all three. Ditto flash and flash-length creative nonfiction. Word count for each flash fiction and flash-length creative nonfiction piece is up to 1,000. For stories and creative nonfiction pieces that are longer than flash length, from 1,200 words to 3,000. The word count for poetry varies, but please do not submit one haiku or one poem that's only a few short lines ... unless it's genius beyond our wildest expectations.
We accept simultaneous submissions. Please let us know if all or part of the submission has been accepted elsewhere.
We do not accept work that appears (or is forthcoming) in another online venue. However, we do accept work that appears only in print, or has appeared in an online venue that is defunct and no longer maintains an online presence (including archived material). We also accept material that has been posted in an online workshop site or group.
Please submit one, two, or three short pieces (up to 1,000 words each) in one file. As I said, we might choose one piece, or two, or all three. Please submit longer works (1,200 to 3,000 words) as a single submission.
