Submissions are open to fiction or creative nonfiction novellas that range from 20,000-40,000 words. Potential submitters are strongly encouraged to visit https://aprilgloaming.com/about and read through what we are looking for in our publications. Novellas that fall outside of this will have a much smaller chance of being awarded the winner.

Speaking of the winner, one novella will be notified by May 2025 of its award and will be published at the end of 2025, or early 2026. The winner will receive royalty payments twice per year after their novella has been published, and it will be available worldwide.
