Submissions
Are you an indie author who is tired of self-publishing or doesn’t want to handle the marketing side of things? Let Space Wizard Science Fantasy do the heavy lifting!
We specialize in queer science fiction, fantasy, and science fantasy novels and novellas, no matter the queer element. M/M, F/F, Poly, Bi, Pan, Trans, Ace, Neurodivergent, other gender representation, and more. BIPOC authors are especially encouraged to submit manuscripts. Space Wizard Science Fantasy strives to uplift queer and marginalized voices that are currently not as prevalent in the SFF community.
Overall, we love entertaining, captivating, and fun stories. Darker elements can be in the books, but we strive to bring hope and inspiration with the stories we publish.

What Makes Us Different
Space Wizard Science Fantasy focuses primarily on queer and BIPOC writers and stories. We pride ourselves on making sure our authors get great exposure and marketing for their books. A common problem for small presses is to overreach, and not deliver. Space Wizard aims to stay debt-free on initial releases, as well as giving great royalty rates, wholesale prices for authors to buy their books, up-to-date covers, and effective, continual marketing for all books in our catalog. If you're an indie author who is tired of self-publishing or doesn’t want to handle the marketing side of things, Space Wizard Science Fantasy can do the heavy lifting for you!
We handsell books at 20+ conventions, markets, and pop-ups per year, and we're always looking for new marketing strategies. We also use a crowdfunding campaign every June to raise awareness for the next year of book releases, as well as gathering funds to help pay for great book covers, semi-pro and pro rates for stories, and illustrations. Authors are encouraged to help spread the word during the campaign! It's a great way to get a first batch of preorders for your new novel.
