Submission Call: Future Visions seek speculative fiction Pays $150, no deadline

Future Visions seeks speculative fiction “[i]n the tradition of great television anthology series such as The Twilight Zone and Black Mirror. They are a new publisher that plans to publish on a quarterly basis. They accept submissions on an ongoing basis.

Publiser Brian J. Walton writes:

Rather than mandating a theme for each publication (one publication for cyborgs, one for time travelers, etc…), I want authors to feel free to explore these larger questions using any and all of the popular science fiction tropes: new technology, exploration, nightmarish dystopians, alien species, baffling utopias, the list goes on…

Here’s their diversity statement:

The Future Visions Anthologies seeks to bring diversity to all aspects of their publications, from the stories and authors we publish, to the themes and genres we explore. All authors may apply regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or political affiliation.
