Submissions

Submission information and guidelines will be revised as necessary. Hadean Press is reading for a variety of our publications, including our next journal and our Guides.

Conjure Codex: A Compendium of Global Magick
Edited by Dis, Erze & Jake Stratton-Kent

We are seeking works of up to 10K words in length concerning the personal practices of magicians for our new annual compendium of global magick. Our focus is on the imminent potential for a new global synthesis. We are looking for articles and essays on spirit work, the grimoire traditions and magick, be it ancient or modern, Eastern or Western, New World or Old World, theoretical or anecdotal, original or translation, practical or historical, monotheist or pagan. Any magical tradition worldwide which focuses on spirit work will be eligible for inclusion. Supporting artwork is welcome.

Guides to the Underworld

We are also seeking works of up to 3K words to be published as a Guide to the Underworld. These pamphlets are intended to assist the magician in his or her practices and they include techniques, information and examples of work that have a general benefit rather than being limited to one system or path.

Trade Publications

We are seeking full length manuscripts for publication as trade or standard edition hardbacks and paperbacks.

Non-fiction: We are seeking works of up to 100K words on magick and the occult. We are interested in the past, present and future of magick as a field of study and use, personages involved in this field, traditions and practices spanning all ages in general and those influenced by or heavily involved in spirit work in particular. We understand that these are broad guidelines; send us what you have and let us decide its potential as a Hadean Press title.

Esoteric fiction: We are seeking works of esoteric fiction of up to 80K words. This count is firm. Think Robert Anton Wilson, Philip K. Dick, Grant Morrison, Kenneth Grant, Colin Wilson. We want to publish fiction that has an impact, that twists our minds, that makes us think and wonder about ourselves and the worlds around us. We want to be mystified, shaken, amused and astounded.

Guidelines

We ask that you submit your text in proper manuscript format as either .rtf or .doc to hadean.press@gmail.com. We do not accept postal submissions. Please put the title of your work and whether it is FICTION or NON-FICTION in the subject line of your email. Please include a brief biography and your contact details in the body of your email, along with a short synopsis of your material. If you have submitted your material elsewhere in conjunction with sending it to us, please let us know.

Submission does not equal acceptance. If we decide that the material is not for us, you will receive our standard rejection letter. We intend to respond to every submission within thirty days. You know what they say about intentions.
